Personally, I ran the Injen for over a year and switched to the ETS UICP/LICP and will never look back. The ETS stuff is way nicer and are shorter so it helps spool. They are also SS so they are stronger. I have the ER/ETS 4" intake with SD and couldn't be any happier. The Injen intake is not that good. The larger S shape is not ideal for power and flow. I would look at switching to SD and getting rid of the MAF while you are at it too.

I have the system and have done a couple of writeups prefecting the system. alot of people will hate on it but it will get the job done i have seen 700+whp evo running them with no issues. Sorry you dont have to get other brands this will do nicely. Besides mikey you of all people should know the UPPER IC does nothing for you. the lower one does as far as spool. so i have read about the ets v2 stats etc but for what you pay the injen is a great system. will get the job done and you can keep stock batter in place about the only other system i might consider is Niesi(however you spell it)

i have a couple friends running the injen piping and it has done them nicely. i have been considering the setup myself. although i must say the ets setup is looking nice as well. what are your opinions on the turbo xs intercooler piping?

However, I do know that I went from the Injen UICP to the ETS Short Route UICP when I put on my Magnus v5 intake manifold and I didn't lose any spool. I was expecting to lose 200rpms with the Magnus but maybe the shorter UICP helped eliminate that... I just don't know for sure. It was not a direct back to back...

I have the Injen pipes on my Evo and I don't like them. The UCIPs are not properly aligned theyand due to the couplings not having a direct fit I have more than once had pipes blow off when they woud not have if the piping was better aligned. I wouldn't buy them again.

I have them too. They were a pita when I put them on. They didn't line up very good so I ended up using some different couplers. My biggest fitment issue was with the licp connecting to the AGP intercooler. I've never had any issues with them popping off under boost though. I did upgrade my clamps to t-bolt style clamps.
