ok my 2.2 cobalt i just got a injen intake installed. omg im only 18 and after i drove it i had a major headache. not to mention hearing it being loud as ever. anyone agree that if u want more "engine noise" try an intake. if not try a fujita intake or an airbox mod cause thats prolly the loudest in car noise ive heard yet from my cobalt.

ive heard louder but this is like a ringing sound in my head. i cant concentrate and drive that dang car as good now. i gotta get use to this thing man. especially since im going to the strip in 6 days. good intake like the power like the sound to an extent but man o man. was i ever surprised

thats a slideshow link of my car and the intake. enjoy

 

Wow, are you kiding man I love mine. Doesn't make much of any sound untill you get over 3k rpms. Try not going much over 3k rpms and you'll be fine. But if your complaining about an intake then don't do anymore engine mods cause it only gets worse from here lol.

 

LOL I love the sound. A few of my friends mention to me all the time that they like my "exhaust sound" (its stock) hahaha

 

2 things:

1) Either you're a wuss!
2) It's not installed right.

It should be louder, but not to the point where it's givin you a headache.

 

Next you should get a new passenger side engine mount and some tranny mount inserts

 

LOL @ ^^^

I love the sound of an intake on a N/A motor, especially a short-ram. I guess its just the ricer left in me from my Toyota. I don't know of any intake that could give you a headache from the noise. An SS/SC at 7200 rpms with a 2.8 is pretty borderline for me as far as noise, but it only bothers me when driving under a brige/tunnel with my windows down. I think you need to just keep it stock. Or try to alter your driving style so it isn't as loud all the time.

 

Wow, I've had my intake on for awhile now, and I havent complained about the sound. It doesnt even get loud unless you get on it.

 

wow y dnt u take ur fingers outta ur *****....injen intake is awsome

 

o ya and i forgot....u r a ***** cuz the cobalt has sound proof steel lol

 

how bout just turn the radio on or up

 

Wow! If he thinks an intake on a 4 cyl is loud, he should try an old pontiac V8 with open headers.

 

send me the intake

 

At least it isint quiet.

 

I love my injen. I admit that their is a lot more engine noise than stock with it installed but its only when you go WOT into the higher rpms when u hear it. I cant imagine getting a headache from it lol

 

lol thanks guys like the comments "wuss" "get ur finger outa ur *****"

nah i know its loud after 3k. as far as giving me a headache, i just installed it yesterday. and i was tired at the moment i guess cause today i drove it and no headache. i like it dont get me wrong. just louder then i expected it to sound.

 

its more quiet if you put the cold air extension on. its not as lound in the car.

 

Sell it, buy the GMPP intake and the RKSport hood, seal the GMPP intake box to the scoop opening, and move the noise outside. When I cut my hood and installed the scoop over my GMPP, it sounded better inside (and a bit quieter) and MUCH better outside because the intake roar is now coming from the scoop.

 

cold air extension really helps for the sound. I know what you mean on an auto it is kinda loud, but really cold air i think is better all around imo

 

Hope its not as unbearable as you claim lol... I plan to have one soon.

 

its not. just that i was really surprised as to how the engine sounded before and after. trust me man its worth it.

 

You shouldn't hear much of anything until you start climbing RPMs.

 

I bet you get more hp from the GM Performance Division sticker than the Injen itself

 

lol ya most def man. i got the GM Performance Division sticker cause i got the GMPP Performance exhaust and i figured id put them on

and yes ur correct. im talking about WOT that i hear it. its actually very quite when cruising

 

I purposely didnt put the CA pipe on and left it short ram just for the sound of it...My exhaust isnt exactly quiet either tho i like loudness...

 

go loud or go home
