BOV sound question on my '14 Mini Cooper S

It seems that over the past 3 months or so my BOV sound is more noticeable from inside the car than it was earlier. The whoosh sound kind of stutter skips, too. Instead of a single 'whoosh' when you lift the throttle after near full throttle, it is like 'whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh' where each whoosh is pretty short in duration. Is this normal? I'm in Sport mode if that matters.

Thanks for your help.

Yes normal, I installed the NM intake and it's more pronounced. Sounds great!
