Is there a large diff between the sound produced from a 250 and a 350.
Just curious, no 350s here, damn..
And also, at what rpm does the loudness maxes at?
No time to try it out yet.

The F-sport intake makes a nice little growl in a certain (fairly narrow) rpm range.
Anyone who thinks it's really loud though has never been in a genuinely loud car (like a V8 with a big-cam stroker motor for example.... the type of car that sets off car alarms just idling past parked vehicles)

the only way our cars get near true loudness(lol idk what else to call it) is if u delete resignaters or get mid pipes and headers for axle backs. i think anyway. then again i am a bit deaf from listening to too much techno!

myth: the louder/nicer-sounding the intake, the more power the intake makes.
fact: the less restrictive and lower temperature the intake airflow is, the more power the intake makes.
sound is a by-product of an intake system, but should not be used as a gauge to determine how much additional power is produced.

I put on the exhaust and intake a few days ago........and I love it. My 350 sounds like a car that has 300hp. Even my father who is an old school hot rod guy says it sounds really good.

Actually, it should sound like a car with 306 HP!!! 
BTW, I know there were others there that were having securing the top cover to the lower box with the clips. Initially I was going to grind down the little lip on the lower box, but I ended up just taking the clips back off the box, and gave a couple good whacks with a hammer to straighten them out. Now they all go on without a problem.
