dump valve or induction kit?
first post on here so here goes, ive got a 2004 wrx sti,
was gonna put a dump valve on it, but not sure now weather to put an induction kit on it instead?
just some thaughts of peoples experiences with either of um would be a help,
i like the sound dump valves make, but would an induction kit sound better?
its my first scooby so im not an expert on these cars, im just having a mid life crisis at 37yrs old and had to buy one, no regrets at all yet.......

If you put an induction kit on you WILL need a remap. Stick with the panel filter, the Ecu should ne able to adjust the fueling enough for this. Uprated panel filters will be good up to 400bhp.
Also, I don't think anyone on here would recommend a vent to air dump valve. The standard recirculating dump valve is very Good. The dump valve position in the subaru system means a vent to air will screw up your mixture, could lead to bore wash and engine damage. Stick with the standard one. But if you want a noisy vent to air then personally I would get the car mapped with it on to correct the fueling problems.
P.s. I have an hks ssqv mapped on my car. Love it personally!

best to get a plan of where you wanna take it get the bits and map once as can get very expensive to fit one and map tweak every time as trust me you will want more lol
