It is caused by the direction the air enters the tb after the elbow. I have seen this on several car and the remedy is easy if the noise bothers you. Remove the tb elbow grind lightly on the inside of the radius to smooth out airflow. A dremel with a sanding barrel or a flap wheel will be all that you need. You just need to make enough change to change flow path of the air around the radius.

My car used to do this also, just like 92awddsm said smooth out the tb elbow
