Sounds like i have a supercharger!

My 08 with 118K has a rpm based noise that sounds like it has a loud supercharger. seems to be coming from the turbos....which have been replaced 10K ago.
It sounds nice lol..but i dont thing its normal. is at its loudest when i push the throttle 75%...and with 20-30lbs of boost.
The truck drives absolutely fine.

Does it make the noise when your getting on the throttle and you can hear it again when you let off? Almost like a whine? I just bought a 2010 6.4 and have the same issue interested to see what everyone thinks.
