which intake is the best for evo 8
I know I knwo I learned my lesson, now which one is the BEST intake? 
i went with a cone filter on the stock tube...50$ almost as good as the 300$ hks suction or what i would ahve gone with if i had plenty of money at the time is the injen kit 350 intake and uicp

probably a drop-in of some sort. I have an Injen with the uicp on my car. But we put a drop-in in the RS and the power does seem alot more consistant. Im getting tuned soon so well see how it turns out

I like my HKS RS. I believe they did a test with and with out it on a tuned car. They lost 11whp when the stock intake was put on. I'll try to find the thread.........Warrtalon feel free to come in on this one.

Yeah, K&N tries to claim they got 14whp from the Typhoon, too, but we knows that's a crock. The HKS definitely can make power...not $300 worth of power, but more than the stocker. The only problem is that this is stationary with the hood open, not with the hood closed while driving with the underhood temps being around 200*, which is sucked in constantly by the aftermarket intakes as opposed to the cold air sucked in by the stock airbox.
I run a custom 3 inch connected to a nasty turbo, I'd recommend it to anyone!
Honestly though, I did the same thing, I didn't search and I bought a typhoon, one of the many less than decent decisions I made.
Depending on your mods a drop in is great, and so is just the cone connected to the stock snorkel.

Stock intake!!. It's quiet, efficient, and is just plain stealth looking. I have a K & N drop in filter. That probably doesn't give a whole lot horsepower, but it's reusable. I love the look of the guys at the dragstrip after I've run some 12 second passes and all they see is a stock looking engine compartment

What good is cold air coming in if it cannot flow freely? The stocker may bring more cooler air in, but it definately cannot bring in the quantity that an HKS intake can bring in.
