Squeak @3k RPM???

Hello
I just got finished installing a cobb lightweight pulley. Everything went fine but on the test drive I noticed a high pitched squeak at 2900-3000 rpm, most noticable during downshift. It seems to be coming from the turbo area but I don't see how the turbo would be affecterd by the install or by the rpm like that. It only happens at these RPMs, I am hitting target boost in all gears and aside from the noise everything is peachy. The noise does lessen as the vehicle gets warmer. Could I have tightened the belts too much? I'm kinda stumped at this point so any and all suggestions are welcomes, thanks much
Cheers
Charlie
