What does turbo surge sound like?

So, I finally got into the go-pedal with my PHP tunes and I was moving pretty good and I hear this *chirp, chirp* sound from the engine compartment. Was this turbo surge? It happened right around gear shifts and I was getting about 25lbs of boost or so. I could also feel the truck cut out a bit during the chirps.

Yep, that's what it was, although it wasn't repeated, it was just two quick *chirps*. Thanks for the clips, I should've known to search youtube first. By the way, Cory, I like JD's quote in your signature. Those are some true words, and I still need to find a way to repay your generosity!

Lol thank Bob, that quote is pretty good, and as mentioned before, no need for repaying.
