An aftermarket intake will make a more resonating noise in the engine bay [hence removing the resonator] , the type, materials used and design of the exhaust will determine the sounds emitted from your tail pipe like the length of the cat and/or resonator box, muffler a straight through design etc.

Why did you link that? He didn't say a thing about making power. He wants it to sound better... wow. billions and billions of lawls. Thank you my friend.



On the XD the intake makes more (and deeper) noise than the exhaust... but I threw a flow-master on it and have the stock exhaust manifold so it didn't get much sound from the exhaust. [
