The MREV2 is great, but it won't do much for his non-revup.

^ ooops, kinda missed that.
Never mind.

It would if he got a tune. I'm just saying.......

Lol. While I'm sure a tune/retune would help, I'm not sure if its worth all that money haha. I actually have an MREV2 on my non-revup (got a new one for free ) and did feel a performance bump, but I definitely wouldn't recommend it unless you want to squeeze out every little HP you can. Another retune might help, but I don't think it warrants the $180 to do it .

I have no idea what a MREV2 is lol i'll have to search..but thanks for all the input I like the spacer idea and might look into it. But I never knew what I was missing my car feels so alive now....FU heat soak lol...

Yeah, heat soak is killer in states like ours. I'm running a furookie intake which is a very clean, good looking, polished intake, but obviously is killing my power. Thinking of buying a setup similar to yours for my daily driving, and just swapping to the furookie for shows and stuff.

If I were to get a Z-Tube, Spacer, MREV2, ART pipes, exhaust either all in one shot or piece by piece, am I going to need a tune at some point or is an ECU reset enough?

Cheers.

You'll definitely need a tune after the ART pipes. You can get by with just resetting the ECU with the other mods.

Check the new takeda intake same concept as the oem but uses a cone filter

yes i looked into that but for the price I'll stick with oem if it function the same..that one does look nicer tho..not sure about the pipe might still get hot..

Yeap thats the only thing that I dont like about it and it is pricey. Is not worth paying $240 and then end up using the z tube instead of the metal piping.
