Stock boost

I just bought my first 7, and about 3 weeks past and all boost was gone and the engine started running HORRIBLE.
So I let her cool down a day, and went reverse engineering mode on that ***.
This is what it sounded like on the first start up.
Now my question is before I started fixing anything I never heard a spool... is this normal for stock?

If it completely stock you wont hear a spool. Not until I got my intake and downpipe did I hear mine.
