considering which route to go with my evo x for basic bolt ons ic piping and intercooler and intake and was hoping for some insight, i know both make great products but ams seems to be a bit more expensive vs ETS and everyone always loves what is gonna be the better bargin whats your guys opinion?
ETS has a better bang for the buck and the piping runs in the same way, so you really won't see any difference there. If you have the extra $$$, I'm a little more of a fan of the AMS intercoolers because of the end tank design, but to most people, you won't see enough of a performance benefit to warrant spending the extra money.

I'm running all ETS parts and I have zero complaints. AMS is an extremely reputable company and they put out great parts. I chose ETS for both quality and price. You cant go wrong with either one you choose.
Good luck!

Either way, you will not be dissapoint it.
If you're on a budget or want more for your $$$$ ETS all the way.

Thanks guys yeah i figured it was about neck and neck besides price. and ets will offer a military discount so i think thats the route im going to go.
I'm running on a 3.5" ETS intercooler with lower and upper piping. I went with the AMS wide mouth down pipe because they don't crack easily compare to others. It is really up to you on which route you go. I purchased the intercooler from ETS because it was bang for the buck and it's as good as the AMS when compared to HP gained. Only difference is the AMS fmic is a cast end tank but ETS intercooler is lighter than the AMS and the weld quality on the ETS is the best compare to other weld fmic. Both manufacturers makes good quality products and awesome customer service. Just do your research and see which you preferred versus the other. But I guarantee you will not be disappointed if you go with ETS or AMS.

There really is no power difference in either one. Yes designs may be a bit different here and there but its piping. And both have similar power making designs. No back to back comparison is really fair because you could do 2 dyno pulls with same exact car with same setup and get different numbers every time.
AMS you are paying for the over priced name brand. Again still great parts nonetheless.
ETS same equal quality parts but for much less. I personally run ETS bits too and I love them!
