Default I am hearing a weird [turbo] noise during acceleration...help Piggy????.

This is bugging me. The car is full VAST stage 3 (Mike knows the car well). I am wondering if I have a bad DV (710N). It sounds like a WHOOOO (like blowing across the top of a bottle sound) noise, not a whistle and comes during acceleration mostly when the car is cold. About 2 months ago my car was spiking (1.4-1.6 b)so I had it looked at by my local tuning shop (remain nameless). They tested the system and found that I had an air leak (not boost leak) on the air line connected to the inlet (cool) side of the turbo. They said a banjo bolt had loosened and they tightened it for me - problem salved. Now the overboost is gone but I have this WHHOO noise bugging me. I am wondering if I buggered a DV or maybe split a line or even pooched the MBC. The noise sounds like it is coming from the dash. In any event, I found it interesting that my friend has a similar noise with his bone stock 01 S4.

Does anyone have any thoughts? Anyone elses car make this noise? Mike, any comments if you're around?

So what was the result? DV? Another leak?
