Your looking at an exhaust leak somewhere. Just look around and see where it is, also, if you arn't running a gasket, just make sure all the bolts holding your wastegate down to your manifold are tight. exhaust leaks suck and they sound awful.
If you want you can take your car to a muffler shop and tell them you have a leak, then when they tell you where it is, tell them that you can fix it, and either throw the tech a tip, or just say thanks.
