So with BMW's TwinPower Turbo, what happened to the whistle? Aren't I supposed to hear a whistle when revving hard enough? Are there really two turbos in the coupe?

It's one turbo with double inlet ("twin scroll"), which optimises the flow.
I've never heard any whistling from it - and don't miss it
