An external wastegate will be far from silent, but mostly youll hear the noise caused by the turbo stalling...

If your turbo can take it, remove/block your DV. That will give you the noise.

As GC8 says, it's the turbo blades stalling.

You need to have a turbo that supports it, its more for rotated setups !! They aren't quiet as I have an external wastegate and screamer pipe on my car and when on full chat the car is pretty friggin loud !!

Depends if it joins back into the exhaust or whether it vents to atmosphere. The latter, no.
