I just bought a fujita CAI and installed it in all but it doesnt seem to have any sound. Before i had the intake i took the bottom end of the stock airbox off and they sound pretty much the same. It's anyone esle's quiet or it's jus me. Is their a way i can make it louder?

Haha, Fujita vs Ebay. Even if yours isn't as loud as the Ebay one, rest assured that you are probably getting better gains.

^I agree with Mayo, loud is okay but I'll take quality materials and better gains any day...

most important is Fujita uses a higher quality filter than any value brand X product

I have the same model. Mines is the power coated black one. Does the filter bein so high up have anything to do with the sound? It's a cold air but when i put the filter on i sled it all the way on till it hit the pipe.

^ Thats interesting. Someone else will have to answer that question for you. I actually dont know if thats how far the filter goes (Web installed my CAI)

But anyway, the sound of an intake I think is really from 2 things. 1) The curvature of the intake and 2)the diameter of the intake

You know, air flow stuff, Haha.

^^ that's got to be the problem right there..

the pipe needs to make full use of the filter and to do that, it needs to just enter the filter, not be fully inside till it hits the end.

adjust it and you should be able to tell a difference

Since you slid the filter all the way on not enough air is getting in it therefore its not making any noise.

An intake can only do so much, noise wise. I personally loved it when I installed my Fujita on my car. However, if you are worrying so much about the noise of an intake, I'd honestly suggest you sell it and go with an axle back if sound is your forte.

My exhaust drowns out my intake so I don't have any video of it driving. I have the engine start up vid and you can hear it draw air in, but it's nothing special. I have the K&N typhoon intake.
