OMG it's the guy with a 350Z who got banned from the SRT forums and then his own 350Z forums. Is this one next groovy? But seriously...I have no interest in arguing anymore...why an Evo? I'm here because I like them but I'm going STi in the Spring.

I go to school in michigan and the 350z isn't practical for the snow , I need awd and 4 doors. Plus I need something quick, and it handles great too!

It's a better car than the SRT-4, but it wasn't out yet the last time I went car shopping. Good to see you haven't changed a bit. Have fun driving your parents Evo.

Back to the subject.......
I have the exact same intake. I installed it myself. Make sure the MAF housing is not rubbing on your IC top hose. If it is flip it over so that little rubber diaphragm is on top. In addition I had to disconnect my battery and reconnect it. Also look at your fuel pressure regulator hose in the passenger side near the valve cover. I have heard of them coming undone and your EVo will run like total crap believe me I have had it happen to me! If that fails inspect ALL your intake system hoses.
Hope this helps. My intake has helped tremendously. It sounds awesome too!

Tim

you know there's a difference that I feel on turns without the spare tire. The rear end swings so much easier than when you have the spare tire with.

I don't know if that's something to consider, but it's true, you need to make sure you have a way out when your tire pops.
