I had the EVO kit which I removed later for the de-snorkeled stock intake. The EVO sounds awesome and de-snorkeling can only achieve 20% of it.. No where close. If you're a fan of loud induction noise and don't mind sacrificing a few low end BHP, the EVO kit's for you

I remember when I cleaned the air filter last time.

I think this added about 50 HP at the rear wheels and improved MPG by 28%.

At least it FELT that way.

Just kidding!

Unless it changed the filter that comes with the EVO is paper! The K&N is much higher quality.
