anyone know then?? although i done alot of stuff the only real changes are the fmic,the veeport that doesint seem to do much? and the silicone inlet hose!!!?????
Isn't the # tsssssh # simply the noise of the vented air being jettisoned by your new Veeport vent-to-air style dump valve, when suddenly closing the throttle between gear changes? 
If so, all entirely normal.

its just cause it didint make the noise before i fitted the fmic etc as i already had the induction kit on never really heard it and i cant stick the old valve back on as it was recirculating and attached to tmic i have fitted the fmic with piping that has the t piece for vta valve already in it so had no option really cant put old back on if your all sure this is normal ill leave it but dont want to be doing any damage etc if somethings not right?

Mine makes that noise no I have fitted a larger TMIC and a GGR induction kit (K&N filter). It is just the noise of the recirc being heard through the induction kit as it is no longer silenced on mine. It will soon be louder when I fit my new GFB dump valve.
Also, I can hear the turbo whine more clearly, and the general induction noise is louder
