Cookie,

When I bought my APS FMIC (MY02 WRX) I also bought one for a friend (MY03 STI).

The kits were different. Can't tell you why, but it was more expensive and contained additional parts (header tank etc IIRC)

Bidding on one from fleabay, came off a 03 STI, should have checked first

The induction kits should be the same though shouldnt they?

why you going the induction route m8. Should be able to get max output on wrx internals with a panel filter without causing any induction related problems.

What turbo you running now ?

It will compliment the front mount i am getting. As you need to loose the air box for the piping, I have had an induction kit on the car for about two years anyway, but a non branded underbonnet one.

TD05 16G mapped to the limit on our cars (MY02 bugeye's) have the potential to kill internals / clutch / gearbox

I'd have a word with the mapper and worry about comments on SN later

I have an exedy uprated clutch already so that should be ok.

internal - when it pops then we can think about some real power
