I'm really happy with my apexi intake, it doesnt replace the maf tube (probably all for good reason) and does its job. I got for just a little over 100 bucks too.

I have a Weapon R secret weapon intake on my 06 Lancer and I cant complain.
It fits good, sounds good and noticed a little more power. Cant tell if its saving me gas but other than that happy with the purchase.

has anyone used the beat rush air intake box? If so does it really help with supplying the intake with cold air. If you guys dont know what im talking about here is the link.

I like the heat shield but the filter looks like it'll effect the MAF negatively by causing turbulence. It also looks like it is the kind of filter that needs to be oiled so it'll soon coat the MAF with it and make things worse.

The only filters I know of that work perfectly with the OEM MAF is the APEXi and the Buschur. Their designs both have a funnel that protrudes into the filter which is said to straighten out the airflow and make it uniform. The APEXi unit uses a solid piece of plastic while the Buschur uses a filter material that flows as well. Which one works better? Who knows but they both work very well and both make power over the OEM airbox and both do NOT effect the MAF.

I would not run any filter except the two mentioned above. I personally went with the APEXi unit.

Dave Buschur also mentioned to keep the OEM intake tube as it baffles intake noises which also effect the MAF. The OEM intake tube works very well to stop that and isn't a major restriction so if you use just a filter your daily driver will be FAR less finicky; especially with cams.

+1 for the Buschur intake and keeping the stock pipe. I have the hard pipe and my car idles really rough. Am having problems with it dying also. Going to try and tune it better now that I have ECUflash
