The noise could also be a cracked ypipe, if you stand outside the truck and start it does it sound normal for the fist few seconds and then you hear the hiss come from under the hood?? that is what mine did and it was the y pipe that feeds the turbo, open the hood and see if you smell diesel exhaust, mine was pretty strong.

Sounds like you might have a split CAC tube or intercooler leaking, if it's only happening at higher boost.
