I had the exact same isses with the RMR on my evo. However, i ended up disconnecting the battery for about 30 minutes, while i installed my grounding cable kit, and then let the car idle for 40 minues while i listened to the stereo and waxed the car. Since then for some odd reason, it seems to be working just fine. If you did not remove any vaccum lines, don't worry about them, they are probably not your problem. For some reason, the evo is very touch with anything to do with air going into the motor. I left the brass bracket there too, and just bent the tab for the filter to fit. This works just fine. But beware all of you open element filter users, water will get on your flter if you are not careful when washing the car! The dealer washed my car today, and the filter got wet from the water going into the hood vents. Just keep an eye out. I ended up putting a nice but gineric heat sheild over my filter from an old honda intake, and this should help keep unwanted water from hitting the filter.

In case you did not notice, there is a map of hte lines on the right side of the underside of your hood. It shows the proper connections for the lines.
