Turbo spool sound

If you didn't hate me yet, I wouldn't blame you if you do after you read this. I have 97' gsx w/ few mods, and I was wondering what it is supposed to sound like when I "get on" my car. I've raced red light to red light, and everytime I do I hear the turbo spooling. It sounds like it changes when I get to about 4000 on a steady pedal. It gets real loud. Im just making sure that its supposed to sound like that and that it's not blown. I had 105,000 on my old one, but I just replaced the turbo last week with another T25. Still makes the same noise - Its prolly normal, but I gotta ask.

thanks (yeah, see. I told you it was a stupid question)

Re: Turbo spool sound

the turbo makes a sound like it's spinning at high RPM.. which it is. If you have a T25 set to 20psi it will sound like it's going to explode. It probably is. All turbos sound like that.
