Bad design. Simple.
I had it in my car and took it off immediately. The screaming ( horror movie noise ) sound along with the stained outer tips was enough proof of bad pipe design.
The product looks good but performs bad, ( hint: why it's the cheapest axle back in the market )
Contacted Greddy and was informed that this axle-back system needs to be mated with an x-pipe for it to work properly. I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
Greddy doesn't even offer an x-pipe!!
I also looked underneath and noticed that the Greddy pipe diameter was smaller than my current Tanabe axle-back system.
I wish I could help you more but the truth of the matter is, it needs to be removed or add an x-pipe and wish what they claim is true.

That sounds belt or pulley related. Check your drive belts, pulleys, tensioner and idler.

Do you have an aftermarket exhaust? Hope that is it.
