Default On Throttle Whooshing Noise

Hi, Since Last week I am getting to hear this whooshing noise which is definitely from the undercarriage, but not able to pin point where . This just come on whenever given rapid acceleration only. Later on while cruise I do not get it. I have check for any leaks from the Exhaust, not a single leak, clean as whistle. Does anybody have similar symptoms to share.

Does it happens only when you drive? Did you try to ask somebody to rev your engine while you listen? If it happens only when you in motion I can only guess its maybe barrings.

This noise is something like a Air gushing out, but I just can't get a clue where? I had a complete run right from the Ventilation Valve down right stream thru the Circulation and Exhaust System, Just can't a hang of it where this whooshing noise is coming from.
It cannot be a bearing noise as the noise would be a kinda metallic, but this is more of some kinda air gush and then silent. And cruise is just normal
