I can Make a Sound Clip of just an intake on my 3.5. You can hear while reving it's nothing like the GAGGED 3.5.

I WOULD NEED SOMEONE TO HOST IT THOUGH.

When I had just a Pop Charger on my 2nd gen, it was actually pretty quiet. When I put in a CAI, it turned everyone's head. Got rid of the stock resonator/vacuum box, and the sound got so much louder. In fact, I don't think 3rd gen VG's got as loud as this. Mr. Gone was around for this. The sound is almost V8 like. I have a clip of it after the install. I have another clip at the dyno, but I need someone to host it.

Sarin, we should do a side by side comparison of yours and Johns car

Yours is nice too.

I need antonthegrey to post about what he thinks about mine vs. his. I took off the resonator on mine. They are still both pretty dang loud, by far louder than the VQ.

Actually, the VQ can be louder than all of ours....it would need a simple belt driven intake or exhuast gas driven intake. We should put our cars side by side and compare. Did I ever send you the video of my dyno's?

I do what I can - now that there's more boosted 5th gens in the scene.

Wanna hear a mean intake? Listen to maximase86's CAI that we put together a while back! Holy sh-- it's the loudest I've ever heard. (except a tiburon 4 cylinder for some reason...)

This link should still work.
