noise when turbo starts to spool

when i first baught the evo8 about 2 months ago the car was only boosting 11psi, i baught a MBC and put it up to 18psi, it ran fine for about 3 weeks, then one day i was driving and i got on it a little and the turbo was spooling back to 11psi and it started making a speaking noise when it passes more than 7psi, i dont know what the heck is up.. mods are injen hard pipes, stock intake with drop in filter, catback and mbc..
