Offline | sc whine Hi there, I just installed a ALTA CAI a week ago or so and love the supercharger whine, itīs just so addictive, but I was wondering howcome a CAI increase the sc whine? is it because of the removal of the back panel which weakens the sound deafning? It doesnt seem logic since the sc whine can also be heard from outside the car, so what effect does the CAI have in the sc?? thanks |

| MINI2 Regular | Standard air filters are supposed to be restrictive and help keep noise levels down.. by opening it up it allows the system to breathe that bit more, which in turn makes the whine that bit more louder... I've de-restricted the air-filter housing on my other car (VR6)... and it roars now... it's a simple mod that anyone can do... "bhp sells cars, torque makes them move..." |
