if you want it loud the get a works axle back.. i have heard those are real loud.... and it will work with your EVO conversion until you decide what you want to do. the go with n RRM or fujita intake for a growl under the hood and your set

well i dont want rediculously loud..just loud when i really punch it..i have an HKS Full exhaust on my supra and i love how it responds..it buz;s when im driving around but when i punch it..it screams

the only reason i didnt want to get an axle back is because i cant run 2 pipes from the axle back so my rear bumper wont look retarded having one exhaust pipe coming out when its made for dual

and i would by the fujita intake but ive heard that it makes your check ingine light come on..that true? or is there a newer one out..if so how can u tell which is newer

RRM axle back is a great choise if you want good sound and good performance. if you like the bigger fart can look the go greddy.
Well if you are going to put the money in to the body kit then wait for a dual tip exhaust to come out. just put the body kit on.. hack of the tip if the stock on for the time being and then get a dual tip when it comes out.

I havent had a problem at all with my intake. The MAF senser seal fine in the intake hole and has a nice sound. I odnt know the how to tell the diffrence... its probubly the way the MAf senser sits in th hole thats all. buy one and try it out.

sounds good..one more thing..since you havent had any problems with yours..is a short ram or the injen intake gonna give u more a gain? or about the same..and can your average joe install it?

and what do you think the chances are that a bolt on like an axle back,muffler,or intake will cause your system to fail and void your warrenty. because i did read they cant refuse your warrenty unless its proven to be a direct problem

No problems yes the intake will give you a little more horsepower. they are dynoed in the +5-10 hp range.

It wouuld be slim to none that an intake or axleback would really be the cause of something happening. The intake is probubly the one you would need to make sure is installed correctly but once it is.... there should be no reason to worry about it.

I honestly think it would be an expensive waste of time. It would just be for aesthetics, really. You might as well just hang the 2nd muffler there with no piping.

No, you want an open exhaust. Hell, the best option would be no exhaust, but the police tend to complain about that.

All intakes give about the same gains. Just pick the one you like best.

Chances are very low. AB/muffler, there's really no way it can hurt your car. Intake can't hurt it unless you suck up water or improperly install and the car sucks a bolt.

Assuming you dont drive a like a dumb ***, and litterally cause the failure yourself, Its hard for mitsu or any manufacturer to prove beyond a doubt that the failure is from your bolt on. Remember when manufacturers make a car they make it to handle a certain level of power and then they being to detune it for various reasons, changes to the exhaust to reduce sound, changes to the intake system to reduce sound, blah blah blah. Its kinda like the pentium processor process that I learned in my IT days. when they made a pentium 500 it was actually at 500 underclocked a bit, and so was other chips up and down history, lately its a little bit of a more complicated process, but the idea is similar.

If your car fails it will be failure of a part regardless of its other upgraded performance parts.
Second, if a failure is gonna happen in half or most the cases its something you can see coming a miles away in terms of proper maintaince and proper inspection. This is why its important to know the burn properties of your spark plugs. They tell a complete picture in how your engine is working. Rich burn, Lean burn, Fouling, blah blah blah.
But its not just the dealers responsibility its your owners too.

Also, as long as you are not playing with the emissions control equipment when you are doing your bolt on stuff, you should be fine. Emission control acts in a sense as a warranty seal in some ways. This is why the header may be considered a bolt on class item because it doesnt not have any interaction with the Emissions control equipment

Make a long story short. if they deny your warranty, sue them, its that simple.
