Default Turbo issue?

Hey everyone bought my 2018 this past September and have absolutely loved it truck already has 47k miles on it in under a year and has never had an issue. Woke up today drove to our ranch to check on some hay and truck worked fine no issues parked it for a bit and when i got back in i noticed this noise. I've attached a video file was to big so i put it on youtube. Anyway the noise only happens on acceleration and right before the turbos kick in, now the truck has no loss of power and makes no noise when cruising. The noise only occurs right before the turbos kick in on acceleration. Curious if anyone knows what this noise is and what it could be my only speculation is that its something with the turbos since it only happens right before they kick in. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.

Maybe a leak on the turbo's pressure side?

Could be several things but that one would be a somewhat easy fix. Hoping for the best for you.

To me, it sounds like something has come loose....maybe some sort of rubber boot.

Hopefully thats all it is like i said there is no loss of power, then again i'm not really slamming the gas down either now rather my turbo not disintegrate if there is something wrong with it.

Update dealership has had the truck two days and says they have no idea what it could be. They've called a ford tech who is supposed to come in to check it out.
