You could have a roller bearing turbo but either way that doesn't have a great deal of effect on the noise of the turbo. Things like wastegates and dump valves do that. From past threads, 9 times out of 10 when people think their turbo is special and post, it turns out to be bog standard.

I know some of the dump valves are adujustable and if the air isn't being dumped it could be forced back over the blades to give a chirup rather than a tsssh.

Cheers,
jim.
