Looking at the afe intake.
More interested in the sound. I couldn't hear much of a whine out of my ZL1 so was looking at putting a cold air on this one if the sound difference is noticeable.
So my question is.... Is there an obvious difference in sound with the supercharger whine with a cold air intake for users out there.
Thanks

No. The sound you hear from the blower is not coming through the exhaust . You are hearing the internal rotating parts ........ in free air so to speak . That's not to say that the less restrictive CAI won't change the exhaust note somewhat .....

Yes the whine from the blower comes from the engine. I'm wondering who has used a cai and noticed a significant increase with the whine under the hood.
