RE: intake loudness
[&:]most people dont even know the difference between a CAI and a SRI. Ill let yall do yalls own research and find that the V2 has been proven to not be as effective as its claimed to be. A SRI takes in hotter air, for those who dont know, hotter air makes the engine perform like ****. IMO i would go with a CAI. And lastly, dont worry about sound, worry about performance, the loudest exhaust and intake wont give you a victory. Sorry for raining on your subject.

RE: intake loudness
(Sigh) What I meant by performance wise for all you claim to know it all, I meant that hotter air creats denser air in the engine. And for those who think they know but really dont, denser air in the engine can lead to a lot more problems depending on the engine condition. Things like detonation or pre-ignition can occur. I wasnt talking about 1-2 HP. Perfomance is not only measured in HP, if you think it is, tell me how much HP you get out of a performance radiatior or fuel or oil pump? Performance can mean effiecincy also, try not jumping the gun so much.

Um, are you asking if you need a cat on the intake? Because, no, there's no cat on the intake.

Sure it will. When u get on it the SRI is going to scream. Its a deep balsy throaty sound. Your MPG are going to go down for a bit, because ur going to be punching it all the time. When u drive normal u wont really hear it, but the first time u punch it with the windows down your going to be amazed, its pretty loud in the cabin, and it sounds really good outside.

It will scream. If you pop on the gas pedal (like hit it and let go quickly) youll hear it make a big sucking noise. Its pretty cool.
Also, while the engine is running, you can put your ear up tp it and hear the air moving in to the engine.

RE: intake loudness
Check this out. Some say it's comparable to the sound of a turbo, to which I beg to differ. However, in that clip listen close to when I hit the top of first gear, you will hear it peak and die down.
Turn your speakers up
EDIT: The High pitched noise jsut before 3 seconds into the vid is what I'm referring to.. ...and keep in mind that's a CAI not an SRI
