Default long moo when speeding up (in 5th on motorway)

as the subject describes.... sounds like its coming more from the right rear than anywhere else could just be my hearing though....

dont always get it, but it seems to mostly come when motorway cruising just in boost when putting ur foot down to overtake..... as soon as I lift off it goes...... happens in lower gears sometimes too but not as much....

ideas please? running the standard re-circ dump valve but have an induction kit if this makes any difference!?

If it's an Sti with a VF24 Turbo, these can moo a bit as you bring boost in slowley. Nothing to worry about and becomes more noticable with a decat.
