sheesh this thing is loud. sounds obnoxious. My wife thought there was something horribly wrong with my car. Is that what the neuspeed p-flow and other open elements sound like? it's a bit much. I'll put it back on pretty soon. It's still cool enough here that it's not hurting anything, except my ears.

Default wouldn't hurt anything if it was 110 outside...

why do you think it's harmful to leave the cover off?

Default no, i didn't mean cause damage...

when it's warm out you will be sucking in nothing but hot air from the engine compartment. Thus negating most of the benefits of it in the first place.

Default I love it without the cover on. Not loud at all...I'd like it a little louder. I always leave it

open in the winter. That reminds me...time to put the lid and the feeds back on.

Default LOL...Yeah, it's pretty loud that way...>>

Most people (over 25) get pretty tired of the open element noise after a while...
