Default does anyone have an intake on an 07?

I'm trying to hear what the turbo spool up sounds like..I'm wondering how loud it is, any movie clips or can someone describe it? Is it a small spool up sound like an audi/vw or loud like an evo?
Thanks for the input

i know vw's 1000x better than minis and diesels 100x more than gassers but to get a louder turbo whistle your best bet is going to be puting either a larger down pipe or a more free flowing exhaust system ie no resonator and just a muffler or larger diameter pipeing... an intake especialy a cold air would give you a throatier throattle sound if it were a naturaly asperated vehical but sence it is turbod you will bennifit from a faster spool and a cold air of course wold drop the ambient temprature of the air the turbo is taking in.
