i changed the EBV and tube

There should be no codes... Your truck is doing what it should under light accel and when idleing.

Your Exhaust Back Pressure Valve is closing, causing the noise and also putting your motor under more load to help it warm up. I'm betting you live somewhere that it does not get cold very often and now it is???

Completely normal.

It closes to build back pressure, not opens. FYI

the sound is more like the pressure releasing somewere under the hood,like a prolonged blow off valve sound,long hiss until you remove your foot from the pedal,at low rpms,

Its your EBPV...
