About the same I'd guess. They all produce a lot of sound. Even my ebay intake is loud

Youre not gonna get much whine without a supercharger.

GMPP intake is pretty mild, I don't think you'd want it.

I think the k/n typhoon intake is the best. It will give your ecotec a nice growl. Heres a vid that another cobaltss member did to show what it sounds like.

All give about the same. theres lil to no difference with each on sound. i have a cheapy and it sounds awsome. think most are 3" pipe right? so they all are going to suck in the same amount of air.

Injen or weapon R might be just a lil better though.

My fujita was nice and quiet.

You should already get a whine. I noticed on my 2.2 at full throttle I had ppl think I was supercharged because of the throttle being WOT.

All intakes basically sound the same. None are gonna be too noticeably loud than one another.

Plus, once you get a full exhaust setup, you likely will never hear your intake again, lol. In fact, I recently helped NamedGobalt do his full exhaust.....full Vibrant 3"....way loud....then a few days later we put an Injen CAI on it......and we've yet to even hear his intake thanks to his exhaust, lol. Same goes for me car......exhaust noise > intake noise.
