I think the additional intake silencer needs to be removed for it to sound any better.

I can't speak to power gains but I can say that the OEM intake filter seemed very restrictive. It has an extra layer of foam , again, to keep things quiet.
That's disappointing to hear (excuse the pun). Mine is due to arrive any day now and I was starting to get excited. I wasn't expecting any power gain at all, but certainly an improvement in sound.

What engine do you have?
