MjGroves:
Your description fits the noise I'm hearing to the T I think. I've tried to figure this out for a while now. I have 21k miles on my SRT and all stock. It's hard to duplicate, but I can get the car to do it maybe 50% of the time if I "try"... at low rpms that is. Kinda like a blow off valve on turbo noise but not really actually, it's more low pitch compared to a blow off valve.
I hope its normal since I've kinda gave up pursuing it, unless forum members think differently.

Every time I've asked, people look at me like I'm crazy. I think it's just the natural sound of the V6, more specifically the FUEL INJECTORS. My SRT6 is still stock, and I hear it.
It annoys me, because it sounds like something is messed up. If you find anything, let me know.
EDIT: One more thing, I noticed that the fluttering becomes more frequent (gets faster and faster) as the RPMs increase, up to the point where the engine noise from the higher RPMs cancels out the fluttering and you can't hear it anymore. I hear it the most when I'm passing someone without pressing the gas much.
