Have you guys been paying attention to the other threads talking about the EVO IX? Seriously the IX has been making amazing power with the most minimal of mods. Cams (which I do not believe are even available yet for the IX, the VIIIs will not work on the IX), Head Studs, Intake? What are some of you guys talking about? To make over 300WHP all he needs is a Flash and MBC. A Turboback Exhaust should put him over 330WHP. Not many IXs have been tested, but the few that have been tested are making amazing power with very basic mods. I'm surprised that more and more EVO IX owners aren't jumping at the chance to mod their IXs because they are making huge numbers. I'm also surprised that more tuners such as Dyno Flash, Turbo Trix, AMS, Buschur, and Vishnu have not yet jumped onto the IX band wagon and started flashing IX models.

Thanks, put the intake and MBC this weekend, feels nice................turbo back exhaust might take me a little time to come up w/ the $$$, but eventually........getting a nice blow off valve next week too.

The intake is probably hurting your power more than it's helping it without a tune. What kind of boost are you running? You need to be careful adding an mbc and increasing boost also with tuning. Keep the stock bov and get the tbe and a piggyback or reflash.

You can't possibly tell me an intake is a waste of money.
there are tons of threads as to why an intake is pointless unless youre swapping turbos. do yourself a favor and spend the money on something that is going to help the car. as much as warr might sound like a jerk sometimes hes right.
