Turbo is going into cardiac arrest. After oil circulation starts flowing better, it'll go away or be less audible. Might want to invest in a new/used turbo so your ready. Don't forget to bronze the deceased and show it proudly on your mantle next to family pictures.

It's the secondary air pump. Just tell your neighbors it's jet tuned.
