whistling/blowing sound from a 4.2 turbo 100!

Hello every1..
My dads cruiser makes a pretty loud whistling sound under acceleration.
More when the turbo starts to spool.
And i feel like (might me improvising) that it's losing power and getting very low mpg (as if it would need oxygen)..

Only things ive checked is exhaust pipe (fixed 2 holes and nothing changed)
And the piping from the turbo -intercooler- the pipe that conects to the manifold so i only checked the plastic and rubber hoses nothing thats made from cast!

Any ideas before i start ripping apart and checking the turbo?

Also, anyone know how theese work?
