Velocity stack/filter for 4" diameter turbo inlet
I am between deciding to use STM 4" speed density intake kit or a DIY Vibrant 4" velocity stack/filter with piping for my pte6262 intake.
Anyone with experience with the latter, which I anticipate should be more efficient with the charge air but still wondering if space will be an issue.
I have not seen any examples of an Evo using the combination in stock location.

Just do a 4" intake. You're not going to realize a power gain with a velocity stack.

Velocity stack/filter combo works. A velocity stack will help reduce air turbulance thus aiding flow as air transfer becomes smoother. It also has a positive impact on air speed as it creates a more aerodynamic passage. This can be noticed the most when in high gear and low load. Do not expect to see any big gains in performance as the velocity stack effect aids things by 3-4%. You also need to use the velocity stack/filter combo in conjunction to a short pipe, and not fitted directly on the compressor housing, to amplify the effect and gain that 3-4%.
