Awkward noise?

whenever I hit about 3-4krpm in my 8, for whatever reason I can hear what I think is the intake or something. it sounds like a really loud WOOSH noise and only happens from 3k+rpm, while I'm driving down the high-way it'll come out and off, and then when accellerating I can hear it sometimes...Sounds like either my intake is sucking up a huge amount of air, or something is leaking a ton of air...

Anyone have an idea what that might be? I just had my car serviced for a blinking CEL, and the problem I had with that got fixed so I don't think this is a problem otherwise they probably would have noticed it and gotten it fixed?

Think I should be worried about it or just keep driving? I haven't noticed a difference in the drive of the car or anything, just that weird noise. Maybe it is the intake but goddam those things are loud!
