good question.... everybody makes sound clips for exhaust systems but none for intakes.... i guess the best explaination is it sounds like your stomach when it's really upset from eating something spicy... but louder....[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] anyone else second my opinion ?

mine sounds louder at 4000... its an SRI though so the length probable has something to do with the resonance

Hey,

The way my cold air sounds (Injen CAI) is its sucking up the air up until 3rpms, then has a growling noise when it reaches 5 rpms. It usually has that "growling" sound if I push it hard. Also when I don't drive the car for about a day, and its really cold outside, the "sucking up" the air sound is pretty loud but goes away after about 10 minutes of driving.

I can defenitley feel the power the CAI gives, especially in the lower rpms. Not much, but its still something.

Ray
