Sheesh, it seems like intakes don't like either the Evo OR the STi. I've heard that the K&N Typhoon works great on Subarus, but then someone mentioned that they had a Typhoon and lost major power with it, according to their dyno. I guess some cars are just different than others. 
I'm sticking with the stock intake on my STi. I've heard that it's really unnecessary to get an aftermarket intake. I just purchased the K&N panel filter instead.
I'd take the advice of most of the guys on here saying that you should go back to a stock intake. You could probably find one on eBay.

3) MAF pipe (plastic pipe that goes from the turbo to airbox - need 2 t-bolt clamps)
4) Vaccuum line that goes from a small nipple in the middle of the MAF pipe to the stock boost control solenoid. This line is actually part of the stock boost/vaccuum lines, and I'm not sure if it's hanging around in your engine bay or not.

Thanks for all the help guys, but I just found out that I need quite a few more posts before I can post in the for sale/trade forum, so if you have a complete stock intake you want to sell, please send me a private message.
Thanks
