My charger itself makes a fairly audible noise, and when under boost the ram tube noise is very obvious. But like you, my exhasut is legal, it's only a tad louder now than it was before (as I repaired a big leak in the engine bay) but it passed Regency and truely isn't that loud.

Ah that's ok, I was told some whine, some don't. Mine more 'wherrs' than whines though. Possibly due to the age of the unit, not sure.
