Has anyone fitted a K&N? I just have to a 1994 WRX, is sounds like I have fitted a dump valve to it, I now feel like an Escort RS Turbo driver (not good). Have I done something wrong, when I drop off the throttle after a heavy right foot, it dumps a ton of air out. Should it be like this, if it should I'm changung it back to the old filter. Thanks in advance for any advice. The filter is part number 57-0319.

I have a 1993 WRX. I might buy it off you (for the right price) if you decide not to keep it
