Do you have a wideband sensor? If so just change it and watch your afrs to see if it changed. If it did which it probably will then you need a retune.

That pipe sucks. I actually had that setup for a while when I first got my Evo. Ran like crap and I got bad mpg. I put the stock one on and it ran so much better and my mpg went up about 2mpg. I never got tuned for it though so that my be why. Either way that pipe is junk.

No I had the stock plastic one. I did eventually get a Evo 9 or mr stock bov and it worked great! Without the k&n pipe of course.

Yes use the stock pipe with a cone filter. I think that's about everyone's first mod. Then turbo back exhaust.
