Default MFI air bleed sound when switching the engine off

Hi,

engine is back in the car and it runs very sweet on idle.
One thing I have noticed is that if i switch of the engine, you can hear a air bleed sound
comming from the MFI (if you stay next to it with open hood, it is not loud).
Is this normal?
