i was thinking of getting an air intake for my evo, you guys think thats a good idea, or no just stay with the stock air box ? I heared that people usually loose 5-10HPs by intalling intake, unless you have a bigger turbo then u gain HP. so please let me know what can i do about it thanks.

most of the time it has to be tuned for it. Depending on what you get you can fuck up the MAF readings. I'm no expert but I wouldn't put it on unless you are gonna get tuned or use gst's open filter.

First power mod on any turbo car should be exhaust.

Well. If you really want an intake then I say go for it. Might be better off getting a nice panel filter, LICP, and a tune though.

Seriously. The smart thing to do is do a half tune at GST then do another half tune at Speedelement. The resulting tune could possibly have enough power to send you to the moon.

I wouldn't say that necessarily...the stock airbox flows quite well...until you hit @ 350whp and that's on a VIII too...just ask Bryan. A TBE, LICP, panel filter, and a good t00n should gain you some nice power...

if you have a 9 you should be seeing numbers near 290-300whp and 280-290wtq from a good dyno tune with the TBE, LICP, drop-in. I got 296/283 with those mods!
