Blown turbo ?

Weird weird sound when I rev the engine at low rpm. Best way I can describe it is that it Sounds like a leaf blowing through an ac vent. Any ideas ?

Clips are pretty short but it just seems like a small exhaust leak.

Just gotta get under it and see if you can see a bad gasket or any signs of leaking. You could run it while under to get a better sense of the area too.

It's funny after taking the video and listening i figured exhaust leak. Can't stand driving like this. Maybe this is the perfect time for me to upgrade to the VRSF exhaust Ive been delaying on lol
