Before I get flamed: What i mean is the stock intake isn't going to be the thing that is holding back power until you start doing some major upgrades, and that the money could be better spent on other mods first. I'm not saying that installing an aftermarket intake won't give you a power increase, simply that at OP's level other mods will net better gains $ for $.

I made what everyone else makes on the stock turbo @30psi 400/400 on a dynojet on E85.
