Default sound from CAI

I always hear that people say that nothing beats the sound of an S2000 with a CAI and exhaust. What sound does the CAI make exactly? Is it like a supercharger sound or something compeltely different? Does it effect the stock exhaust sound? Thanks!

it's much louder and a deeper tone when you have a CAI on over stock. especially above 6000 rpms

i'll post up 2 videos i have

The stock airbox baffles help to reduce the intake noise from the engine. With a CAI, it's basically an open pipe into the throttle body.

I LOVE the sound of my CAI, but it is WAY loud. Some of my friends have commented that they could hear my car from as much as a 1/4mile away (and no, not on a drag strip.)
