My piecer. 14b, 2.5" exhaust.
I recently made a cold air intake that goes into the fender well.

It whistles alot louder now, then when I had a HKS style filter directly on the turbo. I don't know how much that has to do with the metal pipe, and how much it has to do with the filter being in the fender, which is alot less insulated than the engine bay. But the spooling noise is alot louder now.

I've seen some people use something that almost looks like a regular screen door material...

But, the only downside is, you don't get any filtration and you can suck in dust, sand, dirt, or whatever... and that's not really a good thing.
