Since the tube came off the air cleaner, it would mean that the open tube would be pointing back toward the firewall directing the sound of the turbo toward the driver. You might even get a little "resonance" from the tube, kind of like an open exhaust.... Which likely explains why I don't get the turbo sound since mine is pointing the other way.
