Ever since I installed the ebay Snorkel (No name brand)

Only pretty much full boost I get a turbo whistle sound coming from the snorkel.

Not the typical induction whoosh noise but Turbo whistle.

Is that normal? It sounds good lol.

At first I thought I had a leaky Turbo manifold but the passenger can hear it from the snorkel.

Love a good turbo whistle!
Missus once actually asked me why passenger side door trims are always dusty. Because the windows on that side , are almost always cracked open to hear the wind up!!
You wanna hear mudski 's whistle after he starts the car, as it slowly spools it's self up to idle. It's really something...

The Td24t do have an excellent Turbo Whistle sound. Even without the Snorkel!
