What is Ford testing now?

Was rolling down the freeway, came across an "m"plate '08 F250. What made my ears perk up was the turbo whistle. I first noticed with the window up, sort of strange, never heard one('08)this loud while rolling down the freeway. After rolling the window down, was louder than expected. I heard them when under accel from a stand still and/or pulling a large load but this was empty and cruising at 70. Would have liked to seen under the hood. It may be nothing more than a lazy engineer not putting the intake back on, but still raises the thought what are they up to?
