Default water and oil cooled turbo

i just got my turbo done today, not 100% done (untune). i drove it pretty rough before i park the car, the timer came on and the car turn off after 30 secs. I hear this water flow sound. It sounds like water is entering the turbo. Then u hear the steam noise. Is it suppose to be like this after the car is off "OR" is something leaking?

sounds like you have air pockets in your coolant.

We sit outside my friends car and listen to the coolant boil after a hard run or lots of highway.

Ummm... I don't think that's normal. Did you check for leaks?

Did you bleed the cooling system?

My turbo is water cooled and it doesn't make any "water flowing" or "steam" sounds, even after I push it hard.
