looney wild question

hey guys i just wanted to see if this is normal with the looney wild tune. At idle my truck will go from whistling to a rumble. Is this the vanes cycling from the turbo. I never had this on any other tune, so i was just seeing if this was normal with the wild. Thanks for any help guys Brad

By the seat of pants feel, it has more power. The Wild also has the converter locking up sooner.
