Most of the magazines have called it that and it has a legendary reputation in most of the world..

Why would anyone be worried about hearing it spool up or not? Anyway, it's quiet because of the stock airbox that is very, very good and does not need to be replaced with a $250 just for sound.

Yea that's true indeed. but I can't front, I LOVE the way my turbo sounds lol.

A T25BB is just a market denomination and small upgrade to the already existing T25 and it flows 405cfm max. You mentioned that the T25BB outflows the 18G, I am assuming you are referring to the Mitsubishi 18G, if that is the case the 18G flow around 605CFM.

Maybe im mistaken or you read his post wrong, but does "Bigger" mean "Outflow"? I thought he was talking 'size' wise...

FWIW, I had a brand new stock IX pull next to me near work the other day. It sounded sweet! Maybe it's quieter inside the car but from the outside it was amazing and I heard everything.

AFAIK, a car is judged on the basis of its performance, not by the plaque on the grill.

Ok so what's the verdict? Will the Evo run like crap or "die" with a cone filter or aftermarket intake. What kind of tuning needs to be done and will it void the warranty of the vehicle? I just threw one on the other day and it seems fine. Should I take it to the dealer to be re-tuned?

from what I have heard... you should be ok with a cone filter... but the way things go it might work great on your car and run horrible on another evo... but eh if u have probs just put your old soap box on... As for getting it tuned... dealer will not tune nothing for you.. all they will do it crap on you and say bye bye to your warranty... But if you want to get tuned talk to warrtalon and ask a bought a flash or just find somone local that knows what they are doing with evo's and have them help you out... but for the verdict good luck with that there will be alot of opinions

Sorry but you are wrong. Let me tell you with factual support bud.

First off there have been dyno proven evidence that most intake systems actually give you less hp. There are only a few that give you very little hp gains when tuned for it.



Second of all, everyone I race with a intake I beat and this was when I was completely stock. Look at my sig and that is what I am running now and that is w/o an intake. I have not seen 1 person here with an intake that has times like these. Mostly I get threads about how their car runs like crap with either a intake or a vta bov.

Stick around bud you may learn a thing or too.

For example check out this thread, they dynoed over 300 awhp with a Perrin intake and a few other mods, not even a TBE. Anyways, I'll find out soon (hopefully not the hard way!) if its gunna work for my setup or not, but a lot of the high HP cars are all using cone filters and not the stock air box, maybe they converted to MAP and not MAF but here look at this post from Al at dynoflash, which is just ONE example that I found to prove my theory. BTW I've been a member here long than you have, so I think I may have picked up a thing or two, even though I don't have as many posts. Sometimes its better to be a listener and actually learn something! Chances are most people you are "racing" who have intakes, probably never got tuned for it, because the people I have talked to that were tuned for it were extremely satisfied! I'm not trying to start an argument here, its just hard to believe everything you read online.

they were probably either untuned or tuned incorrectly.

Dude if you get the WT package you dyno around 330 to the wheels and that isnt with an intake. That is with just a couple of power mods.

Also if you have been here longer than I have and been listening more you would have learned that perrin doesnt do squat for the evo community. So why in the hell would you even go to perrin for anything evo related? Out of all these awesome great evo vendors here that actually do evo oriented stuff you go to the 1 that doesnt do anything for the evo community? Please spare me the "I have been here longer than you" crap dude.

It is obvious to me and everyone else here you have alot to learn.

Please go and take alook at buschur, ams, dynoflash, vishnu, etc etc to really get an understanding of who you should be consulting about mod advice. Because perrin is one of the last places I would consult about my evo. And warrtalon will agree with me.

Or maybe it couldve been the intake that they just put on their car and all the sudden they are having problems, and when they dynoed before the intake they were making more power.

I mean this advice has been on here for god knows how long? However, good luck with your noise making power losing mod. Cant wait to see your timeslips.

Soapbox is what street preachers stand on. You don't have a podium out on the street, so you grab whatever is laying around to stand high and be heard. Basically when you're on your soapbox, you're "preaching" to people. It was used poorly in this context, because the poster was trying to say that Warrtalon was trying to condescend, which "high horse" would work better for. Soapbox is used more for just "spreading your message", which is exactly what Warrtalon is doing. In other words, he used the saying correctly, but I don't think it filled his intention of being an insult.

You really have no clue, did you even read that thread, it was fron DYNOFLASH tuning a car with a PERRIN intake, Just wait, I have Mostly all Perrin parts, because its top of the line and not too many people can afford it, that's why everyone takes that cheap route out with crap that works, just not as good, just wait until I post my dyno slips once I get tuned, and then you won't know what to say. I don't know why you have to try and put me down with saying stuff like "It is obvious to me and everyone else here you have alot to learn. " I bet it makes you feel like a real man sitting behind your computer screen. I mean, we all drive EVO's, I thought we were all on the same team. You could wish me luck on my project, but intead you come across like a reall dick just so you know, thanks a lot.
