Strange noise after changing exhaust
recently removed the second cat and swapped to a non res pipe, when cruising at 70 in 6th at about 2500-3000 rpm the engine makes a noise like 'throb throb throb' that I didn't notice before. By any chance is this boost creep?

you wouldn't get boost creep when cruising. You get boost creep when your on a pull and the turbo runs away creating more boost than you wanted with no chance of bringing it back in line.
Does your boost gauge show any signs of boost creep? Depending on the pipe you installed it could just be the exhaust itself resonating or you may have a tiny leak somewhere?
