It's coming from the VCT side and gets louder when I rev it.
I will try this tomorrow thanks for that!

I made 270whp/230tq with the stock turbo and 1000 injectors at like 45% duty if I remember correctly. I added the Rb26 internals and 6266. Just running the wastegate set to around 10psi, I think it's over 10 because I've hit barely over 1bar.
I've really only seated my rings so far and went into it just past half throttle.
