It happens exactly when you let the clutch go fast, say at 6500k rpm or more. Will do it when you shift to 2nd or 3rd gear. mine does it and my friend's svt is also doing it. is it something normal for these cars or is something about to come apart? thanks.

It isn't your tires squealing, and it isn't a bad thing (not gonna blow up, etc) '99 CSVT - Silver #222/276 In a constant state of blow-off euphoria.
