If I go with the Buschur air intake kit, will I still be able to use the Ram-air Intake Duct? If not, which air intake still allow the use of the ram-air duct? I know that the stock airbox will not work with aftermarket intercooler pipes. Hope someone can shed some light before I burn my wallet.

Thank you very much for the link. After reading all that was there, I think I will go with the Nisei pipe kit. Especially since it uses the ram air duct, is 2.5 inch in diameter, and comes as a complete set. Almost every other pipe kit, its either the lower or upper, hardly every both together as a set. 
FYI, Nisei's pipe kit fits with the stock airbox. There's a bunch of info on their website on fitment, installation, etc.

Thanks I'll look into AEM's intake. I know I will be wanting to replace the stock intake with one that uses the stock air duct.
Got a link for the 06 MR kit?

I tested this intake with and without the heat sheild and snorkel, the difference was amazing in IATs and the resultant power. I would never put a open element filter on my EVO without using a heatsheild and snorkel.

Finally some light! Thanks for your input and completely agree with what you are saying. And exactly the kind of set up I had in mind. I did not want to put an open air element intake and take away the benefits of the ram air snorkel. One question left. What is the model number of the AEM intake kit you are running and do you have a link so that I may get one? Thanks for your help again.
I am a huge defender of the stock intake box..... The IATs from the stock set-up are good and it does not heat soak very easiliy. It's a great set-up considering it's stock. The only intake i was interested in other than the stock box was a intake that used some sort of heatsheild and re-used the stock snorkel. The AEM did both of these and has a hard MAF pipe. After tuning the new intake, i'm very impressed with IATs. IT was the benefits of the hard, smooth MAF pipe and the benifits of the stock snorkel to keep IATs low.
