No boost leak or loosed hose, those where the first thing I checked. 3 freaking weekends already I wasted i trying to find the source of the noise. Removed bumper 3x already.
It's the back ground noise that goes up and down with the RPM. It's like our cricket's but much, much louder.
I attached the link for the sound clip. Noise BTW is gone when the belt broke the 2nd time. Noise is also present from 60 HZ all the way down to where I already have a belt slap.
Opnions will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Now that you guys heared it, it's really freaking annoying driving around with that noise, specially when on stop light. It's also the last sound you hear after turning of the car. |

Maybe search for "strange/weird Rotrex sound" or "broken Rotrex?" on YouTube there might be some comparison clips.
@ KraftWerks could also say something like "As one of the top distributors of Rotrex, we know when one is failing and it does/doesn't sound like that." |
That sounds like the crickets, but from what you've said it's most likely the blower. Mine sounded like a louder supercharger whine, and ended up keeping the boost from climbing.
I haven't heard back yet on the warranty claim, but I'm almost ready to just buy a replacement and get reimbursed later if the claim is approved. Lack of driving in this beautiful weather is killing me slowly.
