Unhappy Turbo spool down or??????

...I have a 05 PSD with a Banks Six Gun. Just ran it in level (5) fairly hard for 5-or 10 seconds then pulled toward my driveway. Put the truck in reverse and over the sound of the engine with the radio on & with the windows up, I heard this fairly loud "rushing air" sound. This sound started in less than a minute after getting off the throttle. At first I thought I popped a tire, that is how hard the air sounded, or it sounded like an air compressor hose without a nozzle on the end of it blowing freely. It lasted maybe 15 or 20 seconds then stopped. No overflowed coolant or anything abnormal under the hood that I could see. Took the truck out and drove again..normal boost, temps, acceleration and all. Any ideas what it could have been?

Question

Did you have your air conditioning on. You could have blown an a/c hose and the truck would be normal.

That's the fan kicking on. First time I heard it going up the Grapevine I thought I grenaded the engine. Your PSD got warm and the fan is thermostatically controlled so it came on to cool it off. Loud, ain't it?!?!

...Welcome Encrypted to Ford Truck Enthusiasts!

Loud is correct, the first time it happens you jump off the throttle so fast ...
…..See you on the boards.
