I hear a lot of bad about the Injen intake. I think its better than stock but I think this summer I will upgrade to a better piping and intake kit.

The water/meth injection is really just a knock preventative measure for me. I was getting 1-2 counts of random knock in my pulls even with low timing numbers, so I use 1 gallon of distilled water and one bottle of HEET to get about a 10% mix of water/meth. I immediately noticed my knock go away and was even able to get up to 6 degrees peak timing at 4500/full boost with no knock. I cut it back down to 2-3 degrees just to save my engine some abuse. But yes, Im sure if I get tuned on 93 and with a proper mix of water/meth I could make more power

Honestly the most enjoyable evos ive driven have been stock turbo cars with a 272 Kelford or a Cosworth 272 (same specs) on speed density running E85. Nasty cars. Another fun set up is a Evo 8 with a MHI housing FPRED using a set of S2's. I currently have a black that I haven't installed so we will see about that.
