I agree. The stock box is good enough. You really don't see a significant HP gain if any at the dyno if you install an aftermarket intake. I personally like the HKS RS for the looks/sound and maybe an APS cold air intake for "better" performance.

Just our bolt on filter kit made an additional 6 whp, no other changes, just bolted on the filter. We now also have a new MAS pipe that eliminates the need to change the intercooler plumbing and battery kit. It also eliminates any and all driveability issues related to MAS pipes and filter kits. I am not kidding here. 2,000 miles on our RS now and the driveability is absolutely 100% as good as bone stock, no idle issues, no stalling issues.

The car has NOTHING on it for tuning, nothing. NO AFC, NO flash, NO V PRO, NO AEM.

As of now the car runs our new upper i/c pipe, mas pipe and filter, new FMIC and a full 3" exhaust. Car runs very strong.

I was thinking of the HKS Kansai c/f ram air intake. Looks like stock except obviously its made out of carbon fiber, and you can put a cone filter in there.

I've got the HKS RS intake and its awesome! Just remember you won't get a ton of power without a tune, hence why I am getting mine next week but ive gone without it for awhile now.

Search the forums on "typhoon problems", it seems like that intake has been giving people headaches.

Here's an example:
