I think you should swap the motor with a Porsche TT engine - it will probably be cheaper

I don't know why you're getting the HKS Kansai IC piping kit for if you're getting the HKS type R FMIC. It come with IC piping and the only requirement is that you need to use a the HKS blowoff valve.

The HKS Kansai IC piping kit is designed to work with the stock IC. If you look at the pipe where it hooks up to the IC, you'll see that the pip curves up.

It's good that you love your Evo, and I don't know what you do for a living. But your parts listing there is like $10K+. Be a little more realistic and take one step at a time. Decide which area of the car you want to improve first and work on it.

Ya it is a copy and paste from my excel document. I created a list of parts in excel so it would be more organized.

I already have a downpipe /w test pipe and a HKS Carbon-ti exhaust.
A HKS Suction Intake Kit
And a Invidia Turbo Outlet

Im not that great at engines, Im much more savvy in computers. lol. My brother-in-law is helping me, he works at a Speed and Tune Shop in Lexington,KY, so he knows his stuff.

But I havent asked him about the Induction pipe, The induction pipe from Ralliart replaces from turbo to MAF. and the HKS/Kasani i/c pipe kit doesnt come with one and I couldnt find it on 3 different shops websites.
Isnt that different than the pipe from the HKS Suction Intake kit or the same?

HKS intake cam will not work on your car since you have mivec head.

Lots of BS parts that are a complete waste of money IMO. Your car would probably make more power with a simpler set up, and you'd save a small fortune, BUT to each his own.

HKS does have it induction with their IC piping kit and it is different. I think the kit is 96,600 Yen around $900. But the Kansai IC piping kit won't work with the HKS R IC. It's meant for the stock IC.

Ok, So I will delete the Kasani IC Piping kit and Induction pipe and just leave the type r i/c kit. Will that even it up?
