Question Sound?

Ok so when I am driving my car with the windows down sometimes I notice a sound that comes when I quickly release the gas pedal that sounds like a really really quiet bov. I am almost positive it is not a problem with the car but I was wondering what could be making the sound? My car isn't turbo charged or anything but I did upgrade the intake. I hear it mostly at slower speeds but haven't tried it while I'm standing still in neutral. I was just wondering if there is a part that would make this noise. :dunno:

yes CAI and SRI make that sound, a TB spacer makes the sound louder and gives a very quite S/C haul/wine occasionally
