What do you think Evo X Air Intake

I have mine on order it will be here early next week.I will let you know how the new one feels compared to the stock but from what I have heard is that it makes a big diffrence.

did you go with the Works?

I use works, and I can feel the additional power , also there is no more stutter in high RPM (stock A/F is very rich, Works leans it a bit)

I have the Works filter. I picked up 1.5 more MPG and the turbo is definitely more audible. I can't say that I can necessarily feel a power increase however.

thanks, I'm ordering mine today.

I got one a few weeks ago. It's helped with the high rpm hesitation issue, and I can definitely hear the turbo and BOV. My butt doesn't really feel much of a difference power-wise however.

I would say it's worth it if you are restricted to only a drop-in filter...

I have both, just tried a $20.00 Cone filter I picked up at auto part store.
I install and tried it out, it is a big improvement over the works, which is better than OEM. With the Works at WOT, the turbo needed more air, I could feel and hear it. with the Cone better response through the whole power band,
I was able to run right up to 130 mph in 4th gear, and this is a $20.00 filter.
so i am looking to get cold air setup with a K & N filter. here are some pics.

I tried the Spectre from Autozone and could feel a difference performance wise as well as hear the turbo spool and BOV. I then upgraded to the K&N cone filter, It feels exactly the same. But i preferred the name brand I guess.

Just ordered my WORKS High-Flow Drop-In Air Filter yesterday. :thumbup:

:wtfsign:

WTF indeed. Apparently the air filter comes with a longer ratio gearbox.

^ hmmmmmmm

Am I the only one that thinks this filter is over priced? It's just an aftermarket filter.

I think the Works Filter is way over price.Its not like they have some special
magic Fiber cloth or something. You can get a K&N Cone with 3 inch Fitting for less then 1/2 the price. Or get a K&N drop in filter. Work just know how to play the game well.
because with the The EVO-X being so new, People like to keep it stock for warranty+ just dont like sound of a Blow off going off on everyshift.

For those of you that put in a new intake/filter. What mileage did you install it? I'm just over 600 and starting to get the revs up more to break it in. I got my buschur intake today but I was wondering how long you guys think I should wait before I install it.

Just install it now. Its not going to hurt anything, and the sooner you get it in, the quicker the computer will learn the new air flow.

Thanks man. Will do, I can't wait!

:+1: I going with a KN filter. Spectre is a $20 piece of junk. Very restrictive from what I heard.

^^^^Hi guys!

I read about this work filter and very tempted to buy it for my new X. Can someone tell me if this is something you can do yourself?

Thanks
