If it's an open intake, and you WERE using the stock airbox, you will eventually get used to the all the intake sounds under the hood with the open intake

i have the apexi intake, its a little louder, but if you have an exhaust, you may not even notice it.
as for power, i would think it ads somewhere btwn 15-20 not sure, havent had time to dyno it yet.

yes it will change the sound. It should net you between 5 and 10 hp however, depending upon the accompanying mods.

I put hard intake pipes along with some k/n filters and it didn't change the sound TOO much. I can hear the spool a bit more.

But there's also that lil moo'ing problem as well.

You will actually gain power on the low end as well as the whole power range.
