Take install filter not loud, but intake?. Loud exhaust not loud filter air flow topwise. On the sound air flow in hood loud not too loud. Intake loud cause not exhaust unloud ater no.

Why would you want to replace your CAI Filter on the AEM? That thing is supposed to last a real real long time

Original AEM intakes had that red oil filter kind of like K&N stuff.
Then they changed it to that dryflow filter with no oil, but I can't see that affecting the sound.

The question is, why would you want to "change" your filter like that? Your old filter broke or something ?

I would say check for loose Connection.

Please say you are an immigrant to the USA and you are just learning english. If you went through the US public school systems I am going to cry.

Ok, this is the internet, your grammar does not need to be perfect. But your grammar does need to be understandable. Kudos to the people who figured out what you were talking about.

maybe? http://www.dailygrammar.com/archive.shtml
