The Ultimate sleeper would look all stock with an FP Red on pump gas!!! Change of heart for you:
No intake or IC pipes, No IC, No exhaust, nothing you could see by poping the hood.
FP Red, 3" Down Pipe, FIC 1150 Injectors, 255 Fuel Pump, K&N drop in, boost controller and gage. That should be good for 400WHP. And when you sell it, it will look all stock! It's easier that way.

so many mixed opinions about the injen ic pipes and itake!!! budget isnt a issue. just dont want to go crazy with the car. want a quick reliable car that i can when i want to go out of town. i plan on selling car this time next year so i dont want to make it hard to sell by changing turbo and everything

we all know the search function on this site sucks. its way easier to post a question and the few that are willing to answer the question without giving a stupid "use search" answer will give their 2 cents.
my 2cents. intake, full 3in turboback, mbc, boost gauge, wideband (optional but recommended), and a good tune will put u into 12s. maybe 11s if ur that good of a driver.
this can cost u between 1000-2000 total. depending on the company or person u buy the parts from and the cost of whoever tunes u. not a bad deal.

theres always gonna be mixed opinions about any intake and piping. doesnt matter who makes it. it all comes down to if u want that part/company on ur car. i had the injen intake and uicp on my old evo 8. it worked great and fitment was nice. car felt stronger up top without a tune.
injen is known for intake systems, just like aem. i dont think u could go wrong with either. just remember no matter what company/part u put on ur car. the true potential of that part wont be really seen til its tuned.
