Only happens while driving with throttle slightly pushed in, so little throttle that im not getting turbo whistle. When I let off throttle or press throttle more wind sound goes away? I have no power loss, its just annoying!

Should I be concerned? and what is it?

sounds almost Turbo related? perhaps exhaust back pressure valve related? a friend of mine just had to have his repaired. he said he "had a crack in the flange". that was last night and have not had time to ask more questions/get more details. he lost little power as well. have you pulled any codes from computer? does it do it cold and hot? is it a "wooshing" sound? loud sucking sound?
