Icon6 1996 HONDA CIVIC EX - Weird sound..

Hi my honda brothers, i recently bought a 96 civic ex 5speed. I have no problems with the car but when i drive it a bit hard, i would say after 4000RPM and shift, this "weird" sound comes to live.. sounds like a BOV.. i know is funny, but actually it is pretty annoying. Any help would be welcome, thank you guys!

NO.. no fake BOV. My D series is 100% stock. I just came back from the library, this is giving me headches!! but like i said before is not affecting my civics performance. BTW i've change the oil, spark plugs, coolant, power steering fluid, power steering belt. HELP?
