Default turbo installed doesnt make whistling noise?

I Installed It With No Charge Pipes Connected. Just Wanted To Make Sure Turbo Was Working Properly. When I Give It Gas You Cant Hear The Turbo Whistling (the Airplane Noise) Is It Because My Charge Pipes Arent Connected?

You are going to destroy your turbo running it with no charrge pipes. Stop doing that immediately!!!!

From what I know to check if your turbo is working properly this should be done before installation:

You turn the turbo manually by hand to make sure there is no friction stopping it from turning smoothly and that it does not bobble when you turn it

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

I Hooked Everything Up To Make Sure My Seals Are Still Good. Iv Had It For A While Now. Why Is It Bad To Run The Turbo With No Charge Pipes (kj) All The Oil Lines Are Hooked Up. And I Dont Drive The Car Everyday
