Pretty sure it's just due to the ported shroud design.

And all that sound would be better used as energy going into the engine.

Funny you say that, Garrett has two compressor maps for their GT35R, one with a ported shroud, one without. Guess which one has a higher top flow, and a more efficient map all around?
