Weird hissing noise!

Driving home from work all was fine for the first two miles then I was sat in traffic for a bit. Pulling away I got a hissing sound from somewhere on the passenger side front.

 

It occurred as the first turbo spooled and sounded like it was coming from one of the heater vents.

 

It happened a few times then stopped and despite a thorough thrashing with the heater both on and off I couldn't make it happen again.

 

No loss of power. Both tubbies doing their thing.

 

Considering the rain and flooding could it be water that got in somewhere and was being blown out, boiled away or something?

Snakes on a Supra?

 

Trouser Python? :blink:

 

Do you have a boost guage?

 

Could be a tiny split in the pipe to it perhaps?

 

Too loud and wrong side. Definitely sounded like it was from the passenger side vent area.
