I just picked up an 06 MR with just under 60k on her, the 60k maintenance is already done on her. I am thinking of HKS hi-power exhaust, AEM intake, Swift lowering springs, AEM tru-boost, and a tune from English Racing. Any thoughts or recommendations? Thanks guys

 

looks good so far, a fuel pump and lower intercooler pipe will help out a lot too

 

Yes to a LICP, and also add in a downpipe and testpipe. I'm generally not a fan of the look, sound, or design of JDM catbacks though, make sure it's a full 3" and doesn't have a neckdown at the cat.

 

I was under the impression I didn't need to swap out intercooler piping, and fuel pump till around 400hpish?

 

LICP will gain power even on an otherwise stock Evo. Minor bolt-ons (intake and turboback exhaust) require an upgraded fuel pump.

 

OK, am I able to keep the stock intercooler and upper piping and just replace the lower piping? I was thinking ETS LP2 LICP.
