nope, doesn't go faster

i thought it was for my from my engine, i did an valve adjustment, then the sound is still here

i am pretty sure it's from the turbo
but i am not ure if it's INSIDE the turbo, or OUTSIDE the turbo
but it's defnitely near the turbo

what's the problem??

You running a Blow Off Valve?

If not it could be compressor surge

If no BOV is used, there might be a pressure surge that bounces back between the throtal plate and the compressor turbine.

Take it to the local shop and let them hear it, hard to analyze sounds when they arent phonetic 'dak dak dak' hahaha
