Sound Quality with both RB Intake AND Exhaust?

How will the sound differ from both installed versus just one? Is it a lot louder with both installed? Sorry may be a dumb question

i had the exhaust on first... then i put on the intake it was louder.
more noticeable in 3rd and 4th gear.
it's still not TOO loud... but definately louder especially up higher in the rpms
is that all you wanted to know?

I have just the intake, and I couldn't be happier with the sound. I am very picky, almost obsessive compulsive when it comes to things like that too. It isn't noticeable until high rpms and then is sounds much throatier, excellent sound.

I installed the RB exhaust four months ago and I just finished installing the Revi today.
What can I tell you is that the sound is music to my ears and in terms of perfomance my record for the 1/4 mile with my g-timer was 14.35. Today I did a 14.27. I think was a combination of some little things, the Revi, the sound, motivation and a perfet launch.

I have both. Here's a short video clip with sound of my car with the Revi Intake and RB Exhaust:

i was poking fun at you for not knowing how a G35 sounds like because that the RB Revi + REV8 combo does NOT sound like a G35 at all...

I have both but I had my exhaust installed long before...the exhaust ALWAYS sounded great guess I was expecting more from the intake. There is a noticeable difference in the higher RPM's but performance gains from the intake are minimal at best.

Really? I have heard that the intake can provide a significant improvement in fuel economy, with or without the exhaust. Are you saying you haven't noticed an increase in mileage? Or that you haven't noticed much more power?
