I got problems need some advice
Ok so i got some problems the tranny got replaced a couple days ago and I just go it back i think maybe they might have been something the shop messed up. When I start it after it has sat for a while like four hours it dosen't want to idle it sounds like its got a huge cam and it sound a bit louder than normal to. when I drive it sounds like a got a supercharger coming from my speaker or someshit this is not a joke! It even gets louder when the rpms go up. Then all of the sudden my car will kind shut off and come back on really fast. One time it happened in the rain and my car stepped out from underneath me luckily I regained control. Like I will be driving and the stereo and headlights will flash off and back on. Any help would be awesome. thanks guys and gals

Sounds like a bad ground or short somewhere to me. whine in speaker is a symptom of that, along with the obvious others you mentioned. I had a grand prix that would shut off like you describe after an engine replacement. The shop had simply cut the power cables to my stereo in half rather than disconnecting from terminal and then shodily reconnected the cut ends. I repaired the splice and it solved the problem; somehow when it shorted it caused everything in the car to shut off. I would return to whoever replaced tranny and have them check their work.

+1 for the ground issue.
There is a main ground wire the top of the bell housing on the passenger side. Bet they left it off. Take it back to them. You probably don't want to be taking that bolt out on your back in the driveway after you paid someone else to do the job right.
