Default what is an inexpensive air intake that is loudest

Hey guys I am looking for a loud inexpensive intake. I know this will not make me anymore power but I would like to hear my engine more. I see some on ebay but I would like to stay clear of them only because I am afraid that they would not be specifically made for my engine. I also might be wrong and maybe they are OK. I realize to some of you that this is a dumb question so please bear with me.

the injen i put on my car is crazy loud..i've got a 180hp..im sure it'll complement yours quite well, i'd stay away from those closed box things
the only problem i've had with it is the filter gets quite dirty....however it sucks up the coldest air possible..given that it sits like 5 inches off from the ground

i boughta k&n ru-3610cone filter off amazon for around $40 and just stuck it on the maf housing. it is pretty loud. i have a 180 so my maf housing is a bit smaller in diameter than yours so keep that in mind. just remember that you'll want to get all the oil out of theelement if you decide to go this route or you'll kill your maf.

i wouldn't spend a lot on a cai you will not reap any of the cold air benefits on a turbo car. just get a cheap open element filter (k&n or green filter)if you are just after louder intake noise and less restriction.

I bought one of those $30 units off ebay for my 180 and I love it. Great air flow, polished intake tube and silicone adapter and best part it was cheap and fit perfect.

Hands down you need the shroom filter. I have the same tune and it sounds awesome.
