Default Intake Simple question!

Hi, I have a simple question:

What the air intake does?

I'll like to hear more the engine and I don’t want to put a pipe to my car, so a friend of mine told to put an air intake and it will give more boost and I’ll hear more the engine! Is this true?

I had being searching I cannot find it my car is a 2002 3.8 V6 so which intakes do you guys recommend me?

I know that the air intake it has a plastic cover like a black box right now, what happens if I take it out? Any problem with censors?


Thanks and I'll be waiting for your answer!!!

Well you need an air intake in order for the car to properly work. if you want a good system you should go with a K+N, they make a kit for your car.

he gave you a good answer. The K&N kit will put a bit more air into your engine and you will get a whooshing or sucking sound from it. When you say you want to hear the engine more, what exactly do you mean? A cat back exhaust will let you hear more rumble, if a v6 can rumble.

Ok another thing, you know the black plastic intake cover that comes from the factory is that necesary? what happens if i take it out? When i say that i want to hear the sound is when i boost i want the hear more a sport sound a don't want something to loud!!

I just love the sound that V8 has but i know is a bigger engine! mine is a V6
