I heard this same thing. Sounds like a dentist drill or police siren in the far distance. I googled it and was sure my turbos were about to die. Today I went to an indy import place and they said its normal turbo spool up, which is what I hoped was the case. Its hard to hear with any outside noise and happens right between 2 and 3k rpm. Seems to actually be louder in the car (maybe due to sound generator p/n 13717575658?) since the engine is so loud and drowns out the sound if you pop the hood.
