Exclamation need help!!

ok it maybe nothing, but i have noticed that i can hear my turbo spool much louder now, its more high pitched at first , then it goes softer or drowned out by the wot. either way its not the intake or anything like that, i heard it after i changed the clamps for the intercooler coupler, i mean that shouldnt do anything but thats when i first heard it. the car runs the same so i dont think its the turbo going bad? so what do any of u think?
