Short ram intake will give more whine then a cold air intake. Personally I wouldn't do either of them intakes and I would make a fender well intake instead. It's the best out of them all because it moves the finger out of the engine bay completely.
After that if you want more whine it starts getting more involved and costly. Porting the blower will meet more whine along with plugging the silencer ports in the blower. Dropping pulley sizes will make the blower spin faster and harder which makes more whine. But in order to drop pulley sizes you need other supporting mods and also need to be tuned

There are many type of CAI ranging from vendor items to home built setups. They also vary greatly on terms of how well they seal the engine bay heat off. Some setups like the k&n aren't much better than a hot air intake in certain conditions since they don't do a good job sealing off the filter from the engine bay.
You certainly can make a CAI perform well, just look at the factory airbox. Most generally draw air only from a cold source in the fender or behind the headlight but are sealed off everywhere else.
Getting rid of the stock airbox is certainly a major step towards lots more whine. Pulley size also helps, but as mentioned above is very expensive to make a drastic pulley size change.
