Default Strange Vibration

Dunno where it came from, but a few weekd before I put my turbo on, and now after i've got a strange vibration in my engine. If I roll on the throttle moderate I can rev all the way to redline problems, no vibration or anything. However if I jump on it hard, whenever I get up to around 6000 it starts to vibrate like somethings out of balance, the power doesn't fall of. But i'm not going to push it when it acting funny. It started after I did a big brake swap up front I think......could a bad wheel bearing cause this?

On a side note , i'm using the civic atlernator on the integra bracket I had to place to 3/4' nuts between the alternater bracket and the engine to get enough ajustment in the belt.

I do also have a worn out radius rod bushing on the passenger side, the other side is rock solid......

Any help would be greatly appreciated

A smaller belt for the alternator is under $10 at pepboys/autozone...
About the wheel bearing, jack the car up and see if there is any play in the wheel.. just try to pust the top of the wheel in and out and look for any wobble. Is there any noise?

Well see the thing is, if I use a smaller belt, I can't get it around the pullies. I'll check the bearing tonight when I get home. I've got some other miscalaneous thing to do to it. I don't think the engine is out of balance, at least i'm REALLY hoping it's not
