Alpha Expedition: Gobi Roof Rack.
With the windows open, the wind noise from the windows is way louder, and the top does not seem to move that much. No problems there.
With the blower on recirculate and windows up, there can be an annoying flapping of the soft top (whole thing moves up and down rapidly). Not great, but I would assume similar to other racks of similar design.
However, with the cabin "pressurized" (blower on, windows up, recirc disabled), it is generally fine also. This is the quietest mode that I have found. The blower really only needs to be on one click in any mode (A/C, outside air, etc.) to keep enough tension on the soft top material to stop it from flapping. You will still hear the steady "rushing" of air past the rack, but it's probably comparable to the passenger compartment of a 737. WIth the rack and my 35" MT's I can still carry on a conversation with my passenger(s).
