my engine sounds like it is straining above 3500 rpms
About for a month or so now my d16y8 on my civic sounds like it is straining once it gets past 3500 rpms or so. The engine itself sounds kind of loud with a "nnnnnnnn" sound especially in 1st and 2nd gear past 3500 rpms. When I shift it feels relieved like a lot of pressure has been taken off. Sometimes it sounds like my engine is going to explode or something.
Sorry if it is a n00b question but I just want to know if something is wrong, like a belt or something. The only mods done is intake and exhaust. I'm pretty sure it isn't the VTEC making the noise but you guys could prove me wrong

Re: (clm)
It's not clicking and it still redlines and there seems to be no loss in power which is good. Just raced a big truck but loss by a car length but I had a horrible jump anyway and it was up a hill
I'll check the valves and injectors and the cat tomorrow. Good thing it's a holiday
Thanks guys, you all are a big help.
