Yeah leave the intake alone. Maybe a K&N, and that's just
because you can re-use it.

Don't waste time with the silencer "mod". Seriously. Look
at the diameter of the turbo inlet.

The silencer mod doesn't do a whole lot for power, but it doesn't upset the engine at all, and it sounds cool.

no 5 hp gain. the advantage is that you can reuse it.
