yes and I forgot to finish...the powerband is the one of the smoothest I have seen...as of right now, I am running the Typhoon with no tuning tool and it runs great....no disrespect to you, but i have learned as have many others on here that it is pointless to try and get something across to you anyways..like arguing with a brick wall or stop sign..

Right, so you are making 340whp with a Typhoon intake and no tuning? Ok.

I don't understand the point of your last remark when we haven't argued, nor have you done anything to get a point across besides saying you dyno'd 340whp. For all I know, you dyno'd 340 with a GT35R, since you didn't bother to list any mods. Now, I know that you say the powerband is the smoothest you've seen, and you expect us to believe that when you have no tuning. That's a bit much, don't you think? The factory tune is FAR from smooth, and all that intake does is lean it out some while throwing off the MAF readings significantly...

look buddy..it was tuned in the past with the Typhoon to 340hp on pump gas, stock turbo...now I have unhooked the fuel management running on stock ECU with Typhoon and it runs fine..hell I love it!! I could however live without an intake anyways as I am not that big on the few HP it provides, but I like the sound more..I am not going to sit here and try to explain in detail bc like I said its pointless.

I do not really give a flying **** what you have done. I just cannot stand your rude *** comments and attitude as others have said the SAME THING.

Finally, you come to drag strips on occasion right? When your lying on your back waking up from somebody knocking you the **** out from running your mouth to the wrong person, do not ask "what did I do or say". You have already made it clear you speak your mind and you sound like your willing to DEAL as you put it with the consequences. So, don't be shocked when it happens. When you least expect it... you will turn around and it will happen. Do not cry like a little **** cause your mouth cashed that check on here. You tell people like it is, well I am telling you like IT IS. You WILL NOT run your disrespectful mouth face to face directly to me when you run into me at the track, I GURANTEE that.

Maybe we will have the opportunity to meet at one of the Buschur events next year. I plan on making the trip.

I am not playing your little ****ing game anymore. Have some tact and respect for people on here and keep your mouth shut with the rude comments. Your little "I don't care what you think of my rude comments" attitude don't cut it.

There is no need to come back with one of your comments to this post either. Just keep your mouth shut with the rude *** comments and we are cool. Other than that, help others on here with whatever the hell you want. You are obviously going to be arrogant so nobody can do much about that.

If you really wanted to help poeple on here and especially the guy in the other thread, you wouldn't of made the comments about "not helping and as soon as you get over yourself".


Oh god STFU. Please just STFU. No one likes you. Go away. And while your going away keep your threats to your self because threats arn't welcome on Evom.

I got your back Warrtalon, Brush your shoulders off.

alternate solutions


5. an aftermarket intake will give you power without needing a tune

example: EVO8 AIR FILTER KIT. High flow air filter kit for your EVO8! 4whp improvement over stock filter and 7ft lbs of torque at stock boost levels.
http://www.buschurracing.com/cgi-bin....cgi?18X376545
doesnt say "must have a tune" in order in to get an increase in power


9. ask a question to warr and get answer that makes you wish you didnt ask.

i cant even count the amount of times you put people down.

Wow, so this whole time, you were basing your argument off of what an advertisement says on a website? Wow, just...wow. Did I say "wow" yet? WOW!

I had no idea you were so clueless. You are going around telling people that aftermarket intakes are ok to get without a tune, and you don't have a frickin clue what you're talking about...

the link is an example of what i believe in, have experiance, and have seen firsthand from others.

not of what i base my beliefs in. its was just showing that others agree with what i stated

i thought you were smarter than that - for you not to assume things

instead you just calling me names when you dont even understand

well the only good thing i can see from you is your agreement with


9. ask a question to warr and get answer that makes you wish you didnt ask.

but what i would like to know
does it make you feel better putting others down?
do you get your kicks out of it?
is there any kind of positive or structured reason for your negative comments?

If you look at it on a dyno, though, the readings are erratic and choppy, which is not what you want. If you get the intake tuned, you get smoother power with no lean spots, but you still always have to contend with hot engine air...
have an hks filter. says to keep same hood scoop as on original airbox. first mod i did and i gained more power. if there is a useless mod, then it is a vta bov w/o a tune!

tuning will benefit more, but its not a necessity like sqkhog makes it sound

What you linked was a vendor trying to make money. It didn't say, "You don't need any tuning along with this intake." That doesn't mean you don't need one. The resulting lean conditions and disrupted MAF readings are a fact. This is not an opinion...it is fact. If you knew anything about tuning and logging, you would know what happens with an aftermarket intake, but you don't know anything. You continue to spew off about things you are not educated in, and you're doing so at the detriment of others like the two who just responded. This guy actually BELIEVES that he gained power with his "hks filter," and has no idea what it did to the rest of his car. He has no idea that even if he gained a few peak hp (just like a panel filter does), he still is sucking in hot air from the engine bay while throwing off the MAF readings, which causes erract power delivery.

That's the problem. So many people are uneducated, so they just go out and buy an intake, because:

1) it looks cool!!!!
2) it sounds cool!!!!
3) it has to make more power, right, cuz everyone does it!@!!!!

Sorry, but 3 is not true. Unfortunately, people like you read what people like burningmoney say and actually believe it, instead of believing the gurus on this site (no, I'm not a guru, but I agree with them).

Why don't you ask burningmoney what he's accomplished with his car, then take a look at what I've accomplished without an intake. Then, you tell me if that expense is worth the hassle...

well from what i have read and seen and experienced, the intake will add a couple of HP of the bat. but to get the amount of HP that the manufacture is saying you have to get the tune inorder to get the maximum effect. if someone says the intake will give you 15hp and 10ftlbs of torque you wont get that by simply putting it on you have to get the tune to max it out....

Those are my opions, if i am wrong tell let me know.

P.S. the cheapest and easiest mod is to get those chinese or japanese symbols

1 symbol=10hp as soon as applied...hehehe
