sunroof + roofrack = noise?

I have an 07 with a sunroof. I am thinking of getting a roof rack (for no other reason than I think they look cool, and you don't see too many). I am concerned if the roof rack will cause lots of wind noise while the sunroof is open.

Can people who have both please chime in and let me know.

Thanks.

I have an aftermarket one and Yes with the roof open the noise is to much at highway speeds.
