Yes, the darn open intake on my V6 was really loud and annoying, IMHO. I actually really liked the sound it made under heavy to full throttle, and the sound of the bypass valve when I let off the gas, but it made a very annoying, high pitched shrieking sound anywhere between 1500 and 3000 rpm. So basically all the time in normal driving. I took some videos of it and they're on Youtube. I'll link to one of them and you can poke around my other videos to see the others. A lot of people said I was crazy for not liking it but sorry folks, it wasn't for me. I also don't like calling attention to myself or my car with loud exhausts or crazy mods, and I was getting funny looks from neighbors as I drove by.
I would be interested in putting one on my Aero with the High Output Turbo to see what that sounds like. But again, it's not worth the cost and pain-in-the-you-know-what installation just to experiment. I can hear the turbo quite well with just the stock intake on the Aero, mostly with the windows down though. I can't get enough of that sound.
