AEM makes a great one along with HKS and Greddy. But itspointless unless you just want the look or sound.

no, altogether with a stock turbo. People have often LOST hp with an intake.

I got one for the sound... I've noticed no gains in power like cincy said. Sounds really cool though. I have the evolution motorsports v-flow intake.

so the myth that cone filters add hp is busted?
or is the hp so gain is so low that it can only be appreciated on dyno tests?
