For T2s, the best bet is a cone filter w/ 3" TID...will gain ya about 2psi w/ free flowing exhaust(or so I've heard). I'm probably gonna run my filter in front of the radiator if I have room after the FMIC is installed.

for something that you gain so little hp why bother making custom piping and spending $$$$. get a $20 cone filter and be done and have time and $$$ to concentrate on more important things. people spend like $500+ for intakes for FD's!!!!!!!!!!! its insane. rather than buy a $500 intake you can get a freaking FMIC for $999 !!!! just seems very stupid to me the TID gives you more boost and eliminates vacuum leaks that is very sound thing to do

******* a- right, why bother I say. I guess if you molest the car enough, you might gain 15 horsepower or so, then if you remove everything from the car that makes it drive nicely, makes it confortable inside, you might lose about 100 pounds, after all that the car will fly for sure! I say best mods for the money: change gear ratios, going to a 4.30 ratio will FEEL like you added 50 horsepower or so, or like Vosco said- a FMIC. And on a TII- exaust.
