I had S4 driver give me a thumb up once b/c no matter how hard he pushed the S4 he just can't keep up with my evo.

I suggest you change all the LSD fluid, tranny, and of course engine oil.

If the Greddy bov is giving you fluttering sound, get rid of it, I'd go with APS twin vent if you planning to run high boost in near future or the IX metal DV if you wanna save money.
I hope the greddy bov is being recirculated otherwise you will get stalling issue.

There is nothing wrong with the intake, just have to get it tune to get full potential.

Don't worry about the intake. It works fine. Just make sure all your clamps are on nice and tight, and have a reputable shop check the tune, and/or get it tuned. Evo with mild intake exhaust mods and a tune will retain their reliability and be soooo much fun.

If you think it's fun now....

Welcome! I basically have the same car, but red.

You are very welcome. I am in the Army and love every second of it. 2 tours down range and probably many more to come. Yeah I am planning on getting it tuned week after next. I am going to OK for my wedding but more importantly to Denver to see my daughter. Haven't seen her for a year. So far my plan is to go to DTM Motorsports to have Nick do it. I have heard a lot of good things about his ability on the forums. Yeah you are right about the BOV. It does flutter, and I do indeed have close to stalling issues. It is atmospheric as projected. I have a lot of plans for it. One step at a time...Thanks to everyone for all the kind words!

Actually, I just rechecked, and it really is recirculated. It is still pretty loud though. The one on my A4 wasn't nearly as loud.
