Oh I know some people talk about how their intake sounds...I dont remember what mine sounds like. One of these days Id also like to regain my stock airbox in conjunction with a sri arm.
After I put the cf hood on, the lack of a rubber seal really lets water and other things in under there, so Id like to at least cover the filter a little. I may think up something else later too.
Ive heard that a turbo can lessen the sound rating by as much as 2Db (thats quite a bit). Of course, it depends on sizing and manifold design as well as down-tube
Edit***
LOL Went out and put the stock box back on!
I cut around 4" off the sri arm to fit the box at the end, and ditched the filter on a shelf. I'll pick up a K&N tomorrow and some 3" dryer ducting @ Ho' Depot to make a cold air pick-up tube for the box.
Im happy with it.
It'll keep the filter clean and it should perform just as well as the sri once the k&n filter + ducting tube are on.
