That's sound like exhaust leak, probably turbo to engine gasket? It sort of disappears when you Rev it, most likely because gasses are travelling a lot faster

Fairy liquid and water in a squirt bottle should help see if there's a leak

Only noticed the noise when sorted the tick over anything above 1000rpm you cant hear it....ive done nissan skyline, 200sx and impreza turbo swaps...so capable its just the though of it.

It's easier to install a single turbo system than to remove and replica the standard twins lmao

Yeah just read an online guide....complete ballache...id rather pull the engine. What i am goona do is give all the top bolts a nip like i done the bottom yesterday and see if i get lucky. Its only the start of a blow and could be the downpipe top bolts.

There you go then. Probably because its northern running for ages a couple of heat cycles loosened the nuts. At least it's a cheap fix
