Test the aux belt first, it took my mechanic friend 2 mins to remove and then run the engine and see if it still squeals.

If it still does then its probably the cambelt tensioner (like mine)

Is it a squeak or is it a loud squeal? Like a fan belt.

clutch on the alternator ?
There is no replacement for displacement....
But a turbo does help....
