Most tuners find little or no power in intakes on non boosted cars.

What you save on intake spend on headers if you want results.

about one page in on post above

"MAF turbulence caused by the intake. In the many, many FRS / BRZ setups that have come and gone thru my facility, I have noticed that you would be hard pressed to get a better intake than the stock. Granted that it doesn't look bling enough for most, it really does well when it comes down to it, especially if you're planning to tune it down the road."

Vishnu tuning OFT tell you the same story as well.

Intake manufactures tend to make optimistic claims as to HP increases, in most cases a drop in filter will produce same results without associated MAF re-scaling or other issues.
