It is the supercharger engaging---the infamous supercharger chirp. There is nothing to worry about.

Mine makes all kinds of noises when I just tap the throttle and let go.

I had an '05 and now an '06 and they both did / do it. I have gotten to where I like it, but I'd get it fixed if I found out that the clutch were slipping or something??
