Default has anyone experienced engine loudness at 3500-3700rpm

I have a near stock xb, just wheels and added short ram intake to it, its 5spd also.

I think its always been there, but got a little more noticeable after adding the intake...
but on the freeway if I step on it when its at 3500-3700rpm its LOUD, then quiets down once it hits outside of this range even with foot on pedal same amount, like after 3800rpm it sgone again.

is this just the engine acoustics of the xb? like I said I think its been there since Ive had it, and so did my previous one too.

just wanted to see if anyone else has same thing.

Probably the resonance of the engine..I know thats the same RPM range where my tC gets really raspy with the header.
