Light fluttering noise when accelerating?

Hello,

I am hearing a light fluttering noise when I am accelerating...about 1/4 throttle or less. Sounds like their is air sucking from the turbo but also a light fluttering noise. Normal? Read that turbo fluttering is no bueno...but the examples I've found, the fluttering is rather loud. Mine is really light..

Thanks guys! Any input would be appreciated. My first turbo so kind of paranoid haha.

Start with your air filter. When was it last changed?

If it is more than a year old or is visibly dirty, put in a new one and see if that helps.

probably the blow off valve, sounds normal, mine does it a bit under light throttle, but i also have an intake and can hear it quite a bit more.
