Not sure if trolling but why not just get a short ram intake since you don't care about power gains? Cheaper, easier to install, and will sound better.

Grimmespeed and RacerX make decent intakes with dyno proof even though you aren't concerned with power.

I can second this. i used this as the first mod on mine. was really nice but sold it for the standard Mishimoto CAI because I don't have the patience or time to remove the bumper to clean the filter.
the more standard Mishimoto CAI that I run now sounds good and is much easier to get to. However i wasn't impressed with the overall fit and finish of the install

Here's a video of a sound comparison on a dyno. https://www.mishimoto.com/mmai-brz-13-sound-video.html

If you want it for sound only, throw a k&n filter in the stock intake and remove all the resonator boxes.

Rather than spend the money, and since performance is not on your radar, better to save money and make whatever sound you want with your mouth when you accelerate! You can go brrrrrm, shhhhoooosh, or whatever you think is appropriate for the situation.

Life hack 101!

You're welcome!
