air suction sound when raining..

alright guys, I've searched but couldnt find anything about it.

Around 2500rpm-4000rpm I get this suction noise while going into boost.
I can here it only when the road is wet (raining).
I've pressure tested the car and there doesn't seem to be any leaks around the clamps.
It's kind of a loud "ssshhhh"..and it goes away at around 4500 rpm.

BTW, my car has a TBE with a HFC and a MBC.
Everything else is stock.

Yes, I've checked the stock airbox snorkle and it's fine.
I also checked for any exhaust leaks and it seems fine.
The car boosts fine. Spikes to 23lbs and settles down to about 19lbs.
What gives??

Thanks in advance.
