Generally speaking, if you had a plastic/rubber intake and you switch to an aluminum cold air intake, then yes, you are going to have a different sound of your engine taking in air... it's going to sound a little more Darth Vader-ish. This will be enhanced if you also use a metallic stainless steel filter like Blitz, CP, X3, etc.
