Default Effects of a CAI on axel-back exhaust sound?
I have an 08 GT/CS whose only performance mod is a Cherry Bomb Extreme axel-back. I absolutely love the sound. That said, what effect will a CAI (along with tune) have on my exhaust note? Louder? Please tell me it isnt going to get raspy.

The exhaust note won't change, but you will get a very nice sound coming from the engine compartment.

You'll hear a bit more of a roar out of the engine bay and I can guarantee you'll love it!

JLT has a particular whistle to it but it's almost negligible.
