i am expecting over 70hp outta this so watch out

They are NOT the same. The EVO High Flow intake kit comes with it's own air box, the TrueFlow, which is what I have does not require the romoval of the stock air box like the EVO ones does. The TrueFlow just uses a drop-in filter that uses the exsisting stock airbox, but does replace the stock tube/snorkle. The TrueFlow is much easier to install. The EVO is probably better, but requires you to remove allot of crap that is in the way (like the intake manifold) and without a mechanical malual it would not be easy. The EVO also has its own housing for the mass-air flow sensor. The TrueFlow uses the stock airbox, so you don't even have to touch the sensor. Just thought you should know. :dance:

oh really, i didnt know the evo came with a MAS, would it be more reliable than the stock MAS?
Does someone have a picture of the EVO intake?

WHAT? That's NOT what I said. Read it agian, I said it comes with it's own "housing", not it's own MAS! All I was trying to say is that you have to re-locate the MAS into the new "housing" that is outside of the airbox on the tubing. The TrueFlow uses the stock airbox which is also where the MAS is seated. So you don't have to move it. Maybe housing isn't the best word for me to be using, but it's just a whole where the MAS goes into. On most, it's just a rubber-like gromet. On EVO's it's a hard plastic-like casing/housing that is just before the airbox, between the tubing. Look at these pictures.

Thats cool. But I noticed he originally said PowerFlow??? Not TrueFlow. Is he talking about another intake, or was he just getting the name wrong? PowerFlow sounds like a better name, that's for sure. Also, I found out that the TrueFlow "Kit" has been discontinued. They now ONLY carry the filter. I'm glad I got mine before they stopped making them.

I think I would just rather fabricate my own intake pipe... design it in such a way that the elbow/bends are as gradual as possible.

That's a great idea! After looking at the TrueFlow, I realized I could have made one myself and found everything I needed to do it at PepBoys.
