Default Funny noise???

My isf is make this strange noise, only under full throttle excelleration. The car drive just fine under normal driving ie.. around town and on the freeway. However when I give it full gas and the secondary intakes open there is this strange noise. Not sure if it the Transmission, motor or the exhaust system. My car is a 2008 and fully stock. I took it a Lexus dealer in Tustin ca. and the service guy drove the car and heard the noise but did not know what it was. Too hard to pinpoint. He is a ISF owner as well. Any help here would be great.

I will make a video and post. Took the car to make the video and of course, no noise. It seems to happen about 70% of the time and I almost know with start up if it will do it.
