open cone filter
Hey guys and girls, my wrx is mapped with a k&n pannel filter, exhaust, sti tmic, fuel pump. If I was to change to an open cone filter would the map need tweaked and do I risk it running crap all just for a bit noies? Only interested because my Leon cupra sounded really well with an open corn and recirc valve

Keep the panel filter. The car will thank you for it lol

as above, if it's a performance choice the panel filter will do you rightly. Have you snipped the snorkel pipe yet? When I did that on mine it let out a bit more of a growl :

No i havnt tried that, will that harm the performance?

nope, snorkle box just holds air so you don't get the sucky sound when you put your foot down. When you remove it then you get a bit more induction sound. It's still pulling cold air from the wing so you don't get the hot air downsides of a full open cone.

Ah cool, bit off subject but if you have the sti tmic does that mean you would need the stock recirc valve from an sti?
|
sti and wrx are the same.

Thanks

I believe it's a stock part maybe off a non turbo. But it's pre air filter so I wouldn't worry too much. I've had mine off for about a year now and filter is no dirtier than normal. You could always plastic weld a cut of the box onto it or mask it off with some duct tape :)
