well, the bov makes a woowooowoo sound. so maybe compressor surge but the turbo is only a 66.5mm. surly its not to big. or does it appear to be too big if your at half throttle and 7-10psi. actualy 40-50% throtle.

i dont know for sure what that sound is but i have had it happen before. something about mid throttle. you might be able to tighten up or loosen your bov spring but then again that may not help.

i plumed mine into its own 3" exhaust tip out the side of the truck so it looks like I have dual side exit exhaust, really one is wastegate, one is exhaust. It took some creative expansions but it looks awesome and is loud as hell. Only giveaway is if I dont keep them clean looks like one bank is burning oil
