Opinions for Intakes
Hey guys
in your opinion which will be the best/better
intake you can install on a lancer gts?
i have the money now, but im still not sure which
one to buy, i was looking at the ones
they have on roadrace, the short ram
but i dont know what brand will be the best one?
if you could help me out
i will love to know which one gives more
performance to a car.
thanks =]

You can go with a short ram style intake that will get a few HP but typically as underhood temps rise much of the gains disappear. A full cold air intake is better but if not designed correctly can be more restrictive. I found the K&N drop in filters with a 4" duct leading to the stock airbox works really well in these cars and then you have a few hp gains from the filter and a few from the cold air being dumped into the airbox constantly. Does it look as cool? Probably not, but it worked well for my Outlander Sport and it's the same 2.0L 4B11 engine as many of the Lancers. The K&N panel filter that fit mine was the same part number that works in the Evo X, so if it can support 400 crank HP easily it will work fine in a 150-200 crank HP Non-turbo setup.
