turbo ringing at idle...

hey guys I need some help and advise. Just the other day, my turbo started making a ringing sound at idle... Im almost positive its the turbo, you can hear it out the exhaust. My mods are no silencer ring, no muffler (still have a cat), home made intake and Edge juice... Any ideas what would cause the noise? Im worried it might be a bearing or somethin in the turbo. Im takin it into the dealership today for ABS recall, suspension sqeek, door hinge squeek and rattling window Im going out of town tonight and am just going to drop it off at the dealership.

If they dont warranty the turbo and it needs to be replaced, Im cool with it, I chose to mod the truck...but how do I tell the dealership so I dont tell them they dont have to warranty it. I want them to decide on their own without my help. Just tell them not to do repairs that aren't covered?
