Anything I should know about this intake w/ upper and lower IC pipes?
What stock? um... like the tortoise and the hare? Only this time, all the tortoise's dedication won't mean ****! Don't pay attention to the guys behind the SE curtain, they have no special powers. And mod-to-mod, I highly doubt there will be much a difference at all. If anything, slightly better spool up time on the SE turbo's -from what I've heard- but I'd bet that difference is gone with mods.
Edit: Then again, the red stitching is more aerodynamic.

Wait you do know she has close to 400 wheel torque and over 350awhp right?
Even a horrible driver driving her car should have absolutely no problem taking a stock Evo and she is a pretty good driver.

How much? I don't know since it was done by the previous owner. I would imagine around $100 or so. Definitely worth it.
Won't be installed till mid January. Perhaps there will be an indoor meet/get together around that time. You'll get to hear it then I assume.
don't get injen... it's ****. go with any major brand name. Just look at the coupling near the intake manifold... can you say "blown intercooler pipe?". If you plan on any higher boost than stock...
Just don't get it... there are plenty of reviews on intercooler piping on here so just do the research yourself.
People will laugh at you when you pop your hood!

lol I bet I still get 2 more torque then you with stock intake.
Are you getting IC piping?
Yeah I'm ordering the new TurboXS hard pipe kit tomorrow. Looks a lot better then the Injen kit.

I've gotten MUCH better since then. If I went back with my new mods I bet I could cut a 12.0 but I doubt I could launch it. lol
Clutch will definitely be next thing on my list though.
