Would love to have my turbo whistle louder. I heard a cold air intake could make the turbo whistle louder. True?

Good CAC hoses make the turbo more pronounced.

Why do you want more turbo noise?
Attaching a conical air filter to the intake hose, in place of the stock filter box, does not make a cold air intake. It makes a hot air intake. In fact your engine performane will likely suffer especially in the summer months.
The factory air filter setup is a much better cold air intake.

Pull the samco hose off the ex side, you'll get a really loud whoosh noise :) :rockon:
