[Supras] New Noise

It sounds like a leak on the intake manifold side and since it is turbo it is likely to be sucking and blowing dependent upon boost or vacuum. Could be as simple as a cracked or loose hose or a gasket. For intake leaks I've sprayed carb cleaner around the area during idle while listening for a change in rpm when I fill in the leak (at idle there should be vacuum).

Subject: [Supras] New Noise

I've developed a new noise that is a cross between a sucking sound and a blowing sound (I know - weird). It appears to be coming from the rear of the engine on the drivers side and only when the engine is under load. I'm 99.9% sure it's not in the exhaust system (manifold, downpipe etc). Aside from the noise the car runs great and boost appears to be OK. Anyone have any ideas?
