Shredder1568908593 Posted March 26, 2016 Report Share Posted March 26, 2016 So I put my cold air intake back on a few weeks ago. I have the Eurosport Tuning one. I have helped various friends install CAI's on all types of cars/trucks (turbo, non-turbo) and none of them come close to being as loud as the intake on my 2004 V40. Here is a video for reference https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hZ0VGp6uXM. In the video I am barely touching the pedal, all the windows are shut, and I am going around 40-45mph. Everyone who hears my car from the outside or rides in it is blown away by the noise. I had my brother drive by me and it is hysterical. Is there any reason it is so loud compared to other vehicles with similar layouts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1clean00 Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 They're definitely loud. I had a guy in the neighborhood that was walking his dog yell "SLOW DOWN" when i was pulling away from a stop sign, was maybe going 15mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shredder1568908593 Posted March 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Haha classic! The only downside in my opinion is that I seem to get 5-10% less MPG's with CAI installed. I'm assuming its because the air fuel ratio gets manipulated. Need a tune, if only it was easier/cheaper with these cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
