Its not TOO noticeable. You'll ask some and they may not even recognize it but at WOT (Wide Open Throttle) I think it really rours and makes your engine sound like a beast. I think its a great car sound. If I were a betting man, I'd bet your wife wouldnt even notice but I think you will

...without the cold air.

A free-flow, open-element filter is more appropriate description. The "cold" part will depend on the weather.
