I just put in a new alternator last week, and today I was getting a weird sound when I release the brake pedal. Any one know what this is??? it seems to be coming from the drivebelt area.

Also, when I push on the brake hard the battery light comes on. An also when I reach high rpm. (red line)

sounds like a bad connection on your alternator and or loose belt.
