Default Annoying whining noise, help please

I noticed it this morning. When my rpms raise and drop there is a loud whining noise coming from what looks like the upper right pully. It gets louder and faster with rpms going up. Also, when im at a dead stop, and a turn the wheel either direction with the car on, the noise is even louder then when im driving, and the floor vibrates. Il post more soon, any ideas?????

is it your power steering pulley? im guessing it is, since it makes a louder noise when you turn..

Speaking of whining and noise, something was squeling under my hood on the passenger side. I had no idea what was that and thought it was something serious. However, it was just CAI...it wasn't screwed tight after getting my LTs installed, so I fixed it easily. Sometimes it could be something minor but can still look asit's a big deal!
