Your somewhat wrong, physiologically the loud noise tricks the driver into thinking its actually faster

I swear, I was about to to blows with a guy in a Chevy Malibu about his so called "cold air" intake...a pipe and a cone filter made 10 horses.

The JDM TOM's filter is pretty cool though

Ah yes the noise. I used to play around with a Weapon-R drag intake that would make the roar at 3,000 RPM, but nothing happened other than the roar.
