What @2013FSport is saying is that you are better off not going for sound, as it will result in loss of power at the expense of sounding cool (you will be pulling in heat from the engine bay). If you are looking for maybe some additional intake sound, you may want to install an F-Sport Performance intake (part number PTR0353100) or the RR Racing Carbon tuned intake: https://www.rr-racing.com/category-s/240.htm

Sorry for confusion.
To clarify, I am looking for a cool sound and not worried about HP.
Is the extra heat bad for the engine with an aftermarket intake?

I don't think it's necessarily bad for the engine, but the hotter the air, the less dense so less air/fuel going into the cylinders. That means timing being pulled, less power

i used to have the f sport intake with stock exhaust and i absolutely loved the sound. And the fact that it became noticeable above 3500rpm with some throttle made it amazing. One moment its quiet and the next moment you can hear the deep growl. And its one of the best intakes if you want a very very slight improvement in performance

I like the stock sounds, so I have no plans to change my intake

The numbers are there, its the when and how it gets used.
A contrasting example: on the open highway the nose of the car has fresh air present and makes the most of the reduced air path to the airbox and filter.
If however, stalled in traffic or sitting in line at the 1320, the underhood temps rise and the engine gets a slug of hot air. That said, it is shortlived as once you start moving at speed the hot air gets displaced.
There is a fix for the later and good compromise for both. I just happen to dislike the open cone under the hood of *luxury car* as it's too ricey....
