Mine whines through mostly first and second gears, almost sounds like a supercharger. I was told by the previous owner that its been doing this for as long as he can remember and I was told by others that its normal for a T5 and not to worry about it I don't think its the toughout bearing or the pilot bearing, because it will not make a sound if I rev it in neutral.

Could still be the throw out bearing. Mine is doing the same thing. Does the sound go away when you engage the clutch?

I agree with the TOB.... my car was the same... granted I knew my TOB was shot and squealing but I had a geardrive/blower kind of sound on acceleration that is now gone after changing the clutch, TOB, and retainer...
