The sound is perfectly normal. Do a search for hairdryer sound and you'll get a number of posts describing it.

A 5in exhaust system will deepen the sound a bit, but not get rid of it completely. You can try adding a muffler our a resonator to help with the sound.

a packed muffler/resonator is the only thing that's really going to knock it down

I think it sounds cool

but this sound seems to be coming from the engine compartment and it is as soon as it goes above 10 psi on the boost basically when the turbos start to spool the hiss starts

thanks for your info

Yep, that's the turbo making the noise. The DPF/CAT would create excessive back pressure thus muting the sound of the turbos. With a free flowing exhaust, you hear the turbos more and the hairdryer sound out the back.
