Louder Intake on Si Sedan

Does anyone with a si sedan notice the intake sounding a lot louder than that of the si coupe? I speak from experience having owned the fg2 prior to my new fa5. To me when it revs into the 6k+ range the intake sounds a lot more aggressive. Like there was an upgrade to the engineering of the intake.
Or it could probably be that my new fa5 is just a vicious beast.

I don't see a reason why it sound louder maybe the tubing design is slightly diff the fg2 was loud from the factory ive yet to hear a fa5 stock intake.

the stock resonator gargles louder from 4k and up. i test drove both when i was buying, and it seems your right. who cares though cause when the type-r comes out we FA owners will have tones of JDM goodies to play with, and get to watch fg owners try to fit them on theres (not offend anyone). just think mugen, spoon, feels, j's, mr alex... mmmmmm, direct fit.
