      It's not like a NA car, the intake you have, as long as its not too small, won't vary much in performance from brand to brand.

                Just out of curiosity, why would it be the intake?

                At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

                    dude, how would an bad intake afftect how much boost you make? You bought a messed up evo and you cant even take anyones advice as to fixing it to get it how it should be.

                      Don't get an intake, just get a high flow filter.

                      And I highly doubt the intake is causing the problems, probably a vacuum line or solenoid. Either way, have it inspected by a shop, don't trust the internet to fix all your problems. Just have your dad pay the Mitsubishi dealer to have it fixed.

                              An intake will help 10-15 hp over stock.. Fuck the drop in filter thats gay. If you over boost there is one of 3 problems

                              1. Cut vac line to the wastegate, or hose off. Also could have the vac lines on wrong.

                              2. ECU has been re-flashed by a retard..

                              3. Boost control is set up wrong or defulty

                              Im pretty sure I could fix it but id have to charge you!

                              My .02

                              O ya I dont work on cars.. good luck..
