Heh, they don't even compare. The ETS is quite a bit louder.

 

lol. Good to know. It's tax return time, I gotta decide which intake to get

 

You'll love the ETS intake, I guarantee it. Very sturdy, biggest filter (that i know of), bolts all the way to the turbo inlet elbow (gets rid of the flimsy turbo inlet plastic). Moves the diverter valve to an appropriate position. And you can hear the DV pretty clearly.

 

Thanks for the advice. What is more appropriate of the DV position with the ETS over stock? Also, does anyone have experience with the K&N system? Its $75 more than the ETS and comes with an UICP...

 

It's just easier to get to, closer to the licp to recirculate. I have used or seen the K&N, I think gates had it at one time, but he has an ams cold air intake now.

 

ok noob here , i have a 2010 evo x gsr, it has an ETS intake .. question ? can i get a hks bov, and will it work with the ETS setup???

 

finally got a chance to install my ETS intake yesterday. install was pretty simple. the only hard part was trying to that accordion intake tube. looks great and the sound is pure sex

 

Do yourself a favor and don't get a HKS bov. They are horrible. This is coming from a HKS fanboi.

 

what would you suggest?

 

^do you want it to recirc or atmosphere? what's wrong with the stock bov?

 

I don't recommend VTA. But this is the $1000000 question. What's wrong with the stock bov? Unless you're pushing some mad amount of boost (27+ psi), there isn't a reason to ditch it. You can even crush it and make it hold even more.

 

^what is this crush you speak of? i like orange crush.

 

Crushing the bov helps hold more boost...



A decent diagram. Don't use wrenches like others. Do it with precision. I also don't recommend doing this without a tune and somebody that knows what they're doing.

I'm running my synapse BOV with this intake and it sounds/looks awesome. The BOV placement with this intake is soooo clean looking!! Especially the Synapse because of how it sits!

 

could you please post a nice pic of the synapse bov with the ets intake as im about to have this same setup in a few days and i wanna know how it looks and did you need to cut the lower tube to make the synapse sit lower and clear the hood?
