There's probably nothing wrong, or perhaps there's just a leak in the by-pass hose or something that's making it louder (and would cause the car to run rich during shifts).

Have KSpeed check it out when you're there for the tune?
Thanks for the feedback Scott. I'm hoping it's nothing serious as well, just normal sounds. I read stuff about compressor surge and how it kills turbines and such and started getting paranoid about it. I looked over the t-section where I spliced the boost gauge hose and replaced my zip ties with actual house clamps that I can tighten, still has the flutter. I guess I'll just live with it for now until I come in at kspeed.
