Loud wind when driving
I dont know if this applies to any of you, but whenever i hit 50-60mph or so (regular cruisin speed in FL) the i tend to hear the wind a lot...it makes this SHHHHHHH sound louder than what i remember it to be... anyone know whats wrong? how to fix? you have the same prob?
another question...what gives more hp gains and better sound...AEM CAI or Icebox?

How about a REAL response... I notice that you have a '99. Many times the weather seals inside the doors start to harden. Over time, noise can increase quite a bit because of these seals (squeaking, wind, etc.)
What I would recommend is essentially detailing those seals. Clean them the best you can, and then dress them with a good protectant.
Your other opton is to replace them $$$.

Is the wind noise coming from near the fenders? If it is, then you're probably missing a bolt/screw in the fender well that keeps the plastic thing attached. Double check them. Happened to me after I had the body shop put on my body kit. They forgot one bolt, but I thought the noise might have came from the kit, until I found the missing bolt. Hope that helps.
As for the better noise, I have the CAI and it sounds great. Don't know much about the icebox.

For he who asked about seal cost...at dealership, they dont to it, but at body shop, 100-200 (i called 2 places)
