And yes, I can hear it spin down when shutting the car off when hot (takes about 40 seconds last time I counted), and I don't really know how to describe it and the phone mic may not be picking it up but it sounds different to the noise it makes spinning down.

Also in that clip you can hear another odd noise between 0:10-0:13 & 0:17-0:23, like this odd whining down that repeats every half second or so.
The sound in the first clip is the “jet” sound of a turbo mine does it as well ....Hotter the air the faster it moves and louder the whine ....maybe turning it off and restarting it temp drops low enough to quiet the whine down ......from what I hear in the video clips...it sounds great lol
