What have you done to it since it sounded normal, have you checked the air filter? Give us a few more details.

Without actually hearing the sound, I can only guess. It could be the that when the turbo changes rpm , during the shifts, the load causes the compressor wheel to rub on the housing due to play in the bushings. Have you checked the shaft, for play, lately?
As for the high idle part, have you cleaned your EBP line or sensor? Could also be the IAT sensor by the air filter.
