Does the engine sound any different. Check your shaft play in your turbo. Check sideways movement & push/pull movement(forwards & backwards). Might be your intercooler piping.(check your joins) Might be your gaskets.(check manifold gasket & foot print turbo gasket) Place your hand around the exhaust manifold to feel if there's any air leaks(gas escaping)
