here is mine basic fipk2 with DEI reflect a gold heat tape around the heat shield and heat shield box inside and outside insulated works very well and my IAT dropped dramatically only few degrees shy of cold air.. with out the worries or headaches and looks pretty gnarly...

Hey guys, so I have narrowed down my choices between two intake set ups. I'm debating on going with the CT carbon intake or AEM v2 cai. I'm honestly leaning more towards the CT set up due to the fact the way the kit looks and it could add to completing my engine bay set up. Here's the problem, I was reading on the info for that set up and this is what I came across.
"Slightly louder than stock
Air box suppresses noise from filter element "
I don't want to make a purchase on this set up brand new if it's not even going to make a good roar somewhat similar to the AEM set up. I'm trying to find out if any one with this set up regrets their purchase due to the intake not making Vtec sound louder. If I do end up hearing some increase in sound, I'll be okay with that, I just don't want to not end up hearing anything at all and wasted $350+ for something that sounds like oem

It does seem to make a little more noise.
