A couple questions:

-Why does the CAI sound louder (and the SRI even louder) than the stock air intake? If the SRI sounds the loudest of them all, does that mean that by adding hot air to combustion a louder noise is produced?

-If I rev my engine with CAI in neutral, the noise isn't that loud. Why do increased revs in gear (1st, 2nd, etc.) sound louder than in neutral?

Thanks.

cai sucks up air long way, sri sucks it faster, stock has a resonator thingy that silences the sound.

As for the increased sounds when in gear, that's because your engine is actually under load. Think about it, if you grunt while sitting in a chair do you really mean it? As opposed to grunting when you're move something heavy.
