the v2 sounds really good because it has the expanded air chamber and they are supposed to give the car decent power

the V2 is a hybrid intake. as in hybrid i mean its a cross between a short ram and a cai. It doesnt bend down like the AEM CAI and its not as long either. Its a little bit longer than the SRI and still pulls in engine bay air as well as some cold air. I have had the CAI, V2 and SRI.. IMO i like the CAI best but since in NJ i live in the boonies and rivers overflow and i decided on staying with the V2. Its loud on WOT, and you feel a pull in the high rpm range. hope this helped.

^ not true, all V2 are about 95% CAI all the way except only a verrry small hand full where there a cross but about 95% are full CAI, filter i is inside the bumper. Yes they do make sound but is a very sweet sound nice and deep, adds better throttle response too
