Supposedly (from what the other guys on SG have been telling me) the Injen SRI is just a noisemaker though. I can def feel a difference in terms of power with the CP-e.. just wish it had a little more sound..

Honestly, that statement BLOWS ME AWAY!!!
All I can say is... you ain't usin' it right, son!
The CP-e absolutely HOWLS when "on the honk" (full-throttle acceleration). INTAKES do NOT increase overall "tone" or "volume" of vehicle sound at idle or low load... not much, anyway... EXHAUSTS can and will do so, even at idle. The CP-e is an incredible increase in db over the stock multi-box mouth-muffler intake of the stock system, and the afe filter adds a slightly raspy buzz that raises the pitch. With a larger filter, i.e.: CRISPMONGO filter, it is still louder, but deeper, too.
PUNCH IT and PIN IT until the crapmission decides to shift, with NO LIFT on the throttle a few times... then, can you honestly say it's not that much difference from stock??? I can't imagine that!
...hmmm... maybe I just drive harder than other people...?
