K&N filter

Im considering putting a K&N flat filter in my airbox. Can anyone comment if it makes the turbo sound louder with it?

Very marginally. The filter media is less sense than the stock fiber filter and it's a tad thinner.

So, yes. But not very much.

I remember i was pretty happy when I did that upgrade a while back.
You can hear the "BOV Sound" a little more. More induction sound.
