Just installed my intake, couple questions

It sounds good, but not like i was anticipating. Its more of a low raspy sound, then just loud when you get on it. I also don't really notice any performance gains, but i guess its there.

IS it supposed to make that sucking noise? I hear it right when i get on the gas then it goes away, also when i'm shutting my car off for aobut a second.

God that was a ***** to install. There was so much crap that had to be disconnected to get it in.

Also, i do see the point in that putting in a bypass valve does kind of negate the whole point of putting a CAI in, but i'm not sure if il'l need it.. i don't think i'll ever submerge my car but i'm not sure how much water it needs to hit it that it will suck it in.
