intakes

wanted to know if anyone has that website where it says the power gains on each intakes.. mostly looking for the hks intake and the injin intake that comes with the uicp.. wanted to know the difference between the both.. because if i got the hks i wanted to get all the piping for the intercooler also.. so one of the other questions is, is there any power gain if i got the upper piping from somewhere else

Dont quote me on this one, but i believe DynoFlash said that you can gain up to 11 whp by going with the HKS RS intake kit. What i dont know though, is whether that is against the stock intake or not. Also, it would depend on how agressive the tune. I myself prefer HKS, along with my buddies, but for the value, the injen is great. The injen filter sucks, but buy it for the intake part and for the Upper intercooler piping, and replace the filter with either a K&N or a Apex-i Power intake filter

There is no such website. There aren't proven, relative gains on Evos between the intakes themselves, and you will gain nothing from upper intercooler piping. You could, on the other hand, spend the money on mods that provide a lot of measurable power, with or without a tune.

Why are you so negative about this topic may i add? This is a question that needs to be answered...so help us out rather than just being the negative figure in the corner, judging us, yet not advising.

Because it's the 500,000th thread asking about intakes. Anyone who asks this question has chosen not to search and do their homework. Each time it happens, it gets harder to search and find VALUABLE info.

So, in a nutshell, whenever a noob decides to be lazy and not search first, he makes it harder for the next noob who actually makes some effort to find the info without starting the 500,001st intake thread.

DaFarmer adds a lot to this board, so wait until you've been around a while before you call someone out IMO.

plus its these threads over and over again, that has almost all the knowledgeable members at other sites.. they finnally got sick and tired of this... it is hard for us who know the site quite well, hard to find things... i would be alot better if we were allowed to have an advanced forum.. something to keep our interests, and ideas going, not having to sift through endless f-ing bov, exhausts, intake threads.. by the time a good idea comes up, its lost in the endless baroge of these threads.. so instead of asking why we get aggravated, use the search button on that topic and you will see the answer to your ques.. see if you searched you wouldnt have had to post why cant we just help.. so in posting, instead of searching you helped the prob... i justed wasted bandwidth typing this, again..

Yeah what he said....I am new to the evo but not turbo cars and I still have one heck of a time trying to get info I am looking for on certain items....but still i search and dont start a new thread because i know sooner or later i will find what im looking for because it is there in limbo, just takes more time than usual to find

as i add to the cause.....

Yeah, because instead of moving this to the newbie forum, it stays here and when you search for something you get 100x posts that say "SEARCH FIRST!!!"

So instead of posting search first, I'll normally offer the information that I have and at the bottom post "This can be found with the search feature"

On the note about the IC pipe. I noticed that under acceleration, the factory rubber braided pipe expands. Could that have a negative affect on Performance? Are there worthwhile benifits to replacing the stock IC piping with the Buscher piping kit(pretty costly)?

Man, how many freakin times do I have to tell you to search? You keep asking the same damn frequently asked questions that have been asked and answered a million times.

On a side note, when do you get the opportunity to watch your IC hoses while driving at WOT?
