You will have fitted a cone filter or similar?
I noticed a lot of new noises when i did mine 12 months ago.
Just check all those clamps again!

Agree with Graham there, double check all clamps as on FMIC's they tend to need a 2nd or 3rd "tweak" to seal properly with samco hose...mine popped off once at 1.65 bar and it was then that I noticed how slack the clamp was when the engine was stone cold.

yeah itll most likely be the clamps, make sure that they are all sat square on too......i had the same issue and the one that went directly on to the turbo was secured but at a slight angle so got air leak at high boost.
