Default stillen airbox

Just wondering if those that got the stillen hi flow airbox noticed any significant increase in sound going into the higher rpms like the popcharger gives?

it hardly can be heard. The stillen intake is enclosed in a box. The popcharger is louder.

I wouldn't say its silent...
It was definitely louder, but in a different way than the popcharger.
The popcharger seemed more high pitched meanwhile the Stillen airbox is more of a deep muffled growl.

Stillen is louder than oem. High rpm, it will sound like just every other intake pretty much. Just get stillen if you miss the sound of an intake.

lol I have the nismo exhaust and I really don't hear it up top. I mainly hear it around 2k-3.5k. Maybe it'll change after I get my high flow cats installed.

The Stillen is the nicest intake out there, considering price and functionality. I have not noticed any difference in sound, but then again I'm not standing up front when I rev it, and the exhaust covers up any intake noise. The Stillen I have is NOT enclosed in a box - take a look at it through the front or underneath, and you'll see what I mean.

+1. It has a more aggressive sound than stock but not high pitched like other intakes.
