Default Whistle at turbo.

I have a 2006 f250 with 6.0. Have installed EGR delete and SCT programmer. I have a loud whistle coming from turbo area. IT only whistles when your foot is on throttle but stop around 2000 RPM. ANy ideas?

turbo exhaust leak could be the cause.

is it more of a whine or like a whistle could be your turbo bearing or could be the y pipe wich is extremely common on the 6.0's
