Panel Air Filters!

I was just wondering if you use one of these panel air filters, will your hear your BOV with the stock airbox? How about when you take out the airguide? Just wondering if anyone using these filters can u guys try it out for me. Thanks in advance

If you take out the airguide, will you hear it better? I just want the sound and keep the car in stock condition. Its a well tuned machine already so i dont wanna be messing with its components. YEAH no VTA for me thanks

Not true. I run VTA and I know plenty of other evos that do too. If you want to hear the sound, run VTA. If you want to hear the noise but keep a recirc valve on then get an intake.

That's retarded. The snorkel is there to PROVIDE COLD AIR TO YOUR AIRBOX. You won't hear jack squat with a panel filter, and nor should you care.

I ran a panel filter with a Forge DV and I could hear the noise. It wasn't super loud, but it was lough enough to hear that was for sure.
