air intake

Need comments from Apexi Power Intake filter users.

I plan on installing the Apexi Power Intake filter but have concerns on the noise level generated by the filter. Will the sound be coherently loud that it'll drown out the car's sound system? What about the noise generated by the filter at high speeds? Hope it's tolerable.. dun wanna end up half deaf everytime I get on the highway. :emoticon_U:

If that's the case, for highway driving would be loud rite?.. since RPM will be 4K and above then. I hope it's not as loud as a performance exhaust. Had that once... ended up half-deaf everytime i travelled from Penang to KL :emoticon_U: .
