Hooter valve noise?

Ok, so, thanks to all those that gave me free advice on how to get the studs out on my exhaust (which had had a hole in it since I bought the car). The new one is nice and quiet and rich sounding. But now, when boosting, I hear this two-toned whistle. I never heard it before, I think because it was drowned out by the loud exhaust, but I'm not sure. I replaced the hooter about a month ago, I just want to make sure that's what it is because it's not what I'd call a 'hoot'... I think of it as a 'whistle'. The turbo seems to make full boost like it should, and nothing seems wrong, so is this just the hooter valve?
Thanks to those who know :-D
