Is it an exhaust leak?

Ok so over the summer all of a sudden while driving the tone of my exhaust increased drastically. I thought it wasnt a big deal until the next day when I started the car up and you could clearly hear a very raspy sound coming from the turbo/downpipe area. I thought it was just an exhaust leak at the turbo downpipe gasket, but sure enough I go to replace the gasket today and the sound still remains. The boost pattern really didnt change as a result of the leak, only when i added a hiflo i noticed it went up a psi, currently its a stable 11 8 10. Im just worried that the turbo noise could mean that the turbos are on their way out, has anyone every experienced this problem?

I'm experiencing the same thing, and I don't want to remove my turbo's if it's something else ?

Anyone ?
