Wooshing air sound at 5500rpm, when I'm on it

I am a noob when it comes to the 2.7t

80k, 2002.

What can it be?

Vag your car and see if you have any codes.

There's no way anyone is going to be able to diagnose your issue via the net with just the symptom of a "wooshing sound".

Already did, no codes.

I just need to know what a boost leak sounds like, and stuff like that on a turbo motor..

DV's are probably shot.

usually DV's woosh when you let off and start to sound like a blow off valve, but it is possible!

Boost leaks sound like all sorts of different stuff - depends on where the leak is.

video needed to diagnose

could be dv's, boost leak, darintake, mbc venting, etc

Definitely a muffler bearing

But sriously, its very hard to diagnose something when all you're told is the car makes a wooshing sound

make or buy a pressure tester and get a spray bottle fill it with the little bit of soap and water, spray it around the DV's and then underneath your fog light trim piece there will be your lower IC hoses do the same to those if you get bubbles somewhere then its a boost leak, check your throttlebody boot too
