it is most likely th exhaust back pressure valve closed. It is designed to create exhaust back pressure to warm the engine up faster. When the truck is cold it is normal.

Ya, this thread is Void now, I contacted MBRP and they said it is the vacuum from the turbo to warm up the engine faster... my next question is, Should I wait till this vacuum sound goes away to drive? dont want to hurt me engine =)
