I agree with turbovr6. get some pipes and K&n's.

I am working on some intake pipes now. So when I have some for sale I'll let you all know.

Those HKS kits are almost impossible to get now days here in Japan, they

cars when you boost it actually pulls the foam apart and little strings and

***** go into your engine, which is BAD of course



Just a piece of advice.......
They call it the mushroom of death.

Thats about the best thing to do... nothing flows like a K&N

Blitz and Apexi seem to be fairly good intakes, and the HKS units flow the best...when the foam is oiled. When that **** dries out though...chunks of the foam material go INTO THE ENGINE...bad for business if you ask me.



Best intakes though are what turboVR6 and Fd3Boost said...K&N filters and some custom Aluminum pipes.
