Is there any intake does not require a tune?

Hopefully, you have the shiny Forge RS with the adjustment knob on top.
Talk about ignorance...his reasons for purchasing a car don't have to match yours.

the hks being an open element, is definately much louder

hks -> stock box with big hole on top lid - > stock box w/ no hole (loud to soft)

tried both, when back to stock box eventually.

does not affect anything. bov and turbo suction noise is definitely much louder

its free, you already got it. just have to spend 30mins to cut the hole out or put it on a mill like what i did

Buschur cone for the open filter route.

Apex-I isn't causing any problems for members that have it as well.

Would I purchase an intake with no tune? Kinda defeats the purpose except you get sound. The only reason I purchased the Apex-I intake is being it's zero maintenance. I like to get lazy when possible.

Ditto! I purchased my car with an exhaust and the AEM intake/filter on the car already, and it ran fine for 8 months til I finally got more mods and a flash/tune. I read all these threads about hating on intakes and just using the stock cause it's good enough. Sure, that might hold true, but there are some intakes out there obviously that are just as good as well...as me and whitey4d proved.
