Also turbo blanket purchased. Small power steering leak found...will be resolved shortly. And cleaned up some more wiring in the engine bay today. Did take another idle video today...unsure of sound quality just yet.
ARRGH!!! where did you find the leak? under the turbo area right? because that's where mine is I am pretty sure

Yeah its leaking at the inlet. The stock hose clamp doesn't look to be strong enough to handle the thicker hose. Bought a new SS hose clamp today that is able to be tightened. If that doesn't do it....we will use some sealant and hopefully make it air tight. Its barely leaking but its letting enough air in to where I get a faint whine when turning left.

Haha if you were under 30miles away I certainly would. Let me know if that's where yours is leaking. I wonder if SR changes any hoses like we did on mine.

hmm. Might be a similar issue. Which would suck. Luckily it isn't too bad.
