It's not much louder than stock....you get alittle more supercharger wining noise, but that's about it.

Performance wise, it really openedup the breathing for the motor above 4.5K RPM...my car use to gasp for air over 5K RPM with the stock intake, but now
pulls smoothly to redline.

The Pilo CAI is good stuff - great product for the money. Better "music" and some power gains too
