Anyone got any quick instructions for fitting the induction kit thingy to a my93 wrx? Any tips would also be welcomed,
cheers.

The kit comes with amazing instructions!
But a shoddy piece of ubber tubing which confused the hell outta me!
It's the "new piece of intake hose" but looks nothing like the one in the pic!!
Took the day off work to fit mine today, and it's raining!
Nice.

Jonny... is the kit you have for a uk or wrx. The kits are different.... or maybe they've changed the design. Mine has been on for some time.

Hi,

I see your from Manchester.... i got the wire from Maplins in town (opposite the BBC). It's 8 AWG in car stuff and i also got some gold plated connectors from them too. I did a six point mod.... to passenger side strut tower, the engine block, the ECU chassis (inside the car), passenger side of the inlet manifold, drivers side of the manifold and from here (not the battery) to the drivers side strut tower. Took about 30 mins including cutting to size, crimping the ends etc. Total cost was less than £20 including very nice gold plated connections. Can't say i've noticed a huge difference but for £20 it can't do any harm .

Jonny, not sure what a MAS is? Do you mean the MAF.... if so some of the stuff was a bit tight to get on. What i did was put some WD40 on it and it slides on nice and easy then (well better than without).

The real pain on mine was getting the little breather hose to go in the bottom of the filter.... what a bitch!

Hope that helps,

Tony.
