Default Weird Crackling Sound

New to the site hope the post is in the right place anyways, have a 2007 Scion Tc base with precision turbo tuned to 13lbs. In the process of driving a very long trip and when I hit almost full boost and little under a weird like rock rattling crackling noise comes from what sounds like the turbo, any ideas?

Would have to hear this sound.
Sometimes the bearings in the turbo go out or the fins on the wheels chip and the balance gets throw off causing it to rock.

Check the turbo for play.
