be like it is
even at part throttle above 4000 rpm, my car is pretty loud. the whole car is filled with the intake sound. it rumbles pretty good--im really surprised by how loud it is. now, im wondering whether to go with an sri or a k&n drop in. the drop in would be cheaper, but the sri would get more air and therefore more power...another tough decision.

i did it too and i have no problem. little suggestion, if u want make it lil' bit louder, take out the lower intake box, so it is just gonna be the upper intake box and the ifilter. the sounds is loud as hell, almost like SRI

i would do that, but i dont want the filter falling off, plus it would get super dirty really fast. then it would be hella loud lol.

neither of those should cause any sort of a problem.

i was just thinking of buying an aem dryflow filter. what is the measurement of the stock intake tube? id have to go out to the car tomorrow sometime and i might be able to look at it, unless its raining. it would cost me like $50, and it wouldnt have the "whistle" that some people complain about. idk what to do!!
