SRI filters
 
Stupid question, but do any filters sound louder? I have a ractive filter and I dont really hear any noise from the SRI.

Who cares about noise....

Did you feel any gains with SRI? If you did, then be happy and if not...you're SOL.

DXcivicHB 17-Oct-2005 08:23 PM

umm a little gain, just some peoples SRI have a bit of a hissing noise that I dont have

nashall 17-Oct-2005 08:27 PM

try a k&n

SteveZ 17-Oct-2005 11:31 PM

noise doesnt add performance, performance adds noise.

DXcivicHB 17-Oct-2005 11:43 PM

wow thanks steve, i thought i gained like 10-15 hp from my intake

SteveZ 17-Oct-2005 11:54 PM

so then why do you want a louder filter? so that it sounds faster then it really is?

civicnation 18-Oct-2005 08:30 AM

ya, i think you lucked out that it is quiet, a lot of them are loud which i personally do not like.

Cynikal.Mindset 18-Oct-2005 11:13 AM

clean your filter...its prolly dirty

rice-01 18-Oct-2005 02:49 PM

cheaper filters are louder i think...

imported_JDM_Outlaw 19-Oct-2005 08:03 AM

well when it was time clean my filter....

what did I do instead?

look around for a 94-01 integra OEM air box, in my case a 96 LS Air box,

figured out some way to make it fit (meanin chopin a small piece of the short ram)

and the end result was a not so loud intake and something of a DIY COmptech ice box

man I wish my filter was quieter... I got enough noise in my engine bay. if its nut hissing when it sucks up air its probably dirty.

the hissing noise you hear is usually associated with a generic CAI on a Z6 motor.

if you want a loud filter, get your hands on the Blitz metal mesh filter. i think it's over 150bux for the filter, but it's the loudest thing i've ever heard....

im pretty sure the SRI isnt gonna give u a noticable boost in HP. 90% of the times if you think your cars faster its just that. Your THINKING your car is faster.

Jus like when i put my front upper strut bar on my bone stock civic i thought it was a handling machine. Basically the whole point of a filter is noise, just like with an exhaust.

Get a K&N filter ive heard that on an SRI and it sounds nice.
