aFe Install, keep or loose noise generator

This Monday I am finally putting in my aFe intake along with my new Perrin resonated catback exhaust system. Most people say the perrin is not much louder then stock under normal driving conditions, but in the higher rev band it lets you and others know its there which is perfect. Now my question, I don't want to loose the magic in the cabin where it sounds like I am driving an econo box inside the cabin without the noise generator. I am leaning towards removing it from what I have read, but what do you guys think.

Keep it, doesn't hurt anything. I've got TRD Soundchangers on the way though.

Lose it. You will hear the CAI in the cabin w/o it.

now that you have intake and exhaust, there will be plenty of REAL engine noise for you to hear. With that said, go ahead and remove the clutter in the engine bay.

IMO the soundtube is annoying. I would say dump it.
