induction or not
I have a 2002 wrx with ppp is it worth fitting induction ( would i need a re map to see any benifit) or just a free flowing panel filter.

Yes you would as it will lean things out normally.
Panel filters are more than efficient for quite high levels. |
They do sound nice though :)
|
The standard air box with a decent panel filter is good for 350bhp. Induction kits are known to f up the maf (poor running and loss of power) and make the car run lean. Probably would not bother.

A remap would seee gains with or without Kit on ;) Your best Value option IMHO tony |
I too was pondering about an induction kit a while back but most people on here don't rate them.
As regards the filter,i've got an MY07 STi - would i benefit at all getting a different filter,if so which one ? |
A cone filter on my classic replacing my uprated panel filter made an extra 8bhp on the rollers.

That's normally the case with a Classic but can cause more problems than gains on a newage IIRC as said above panel filter OK to 360bhp;) the litchfield T25 is 415bhp and still uses the STD airbox Tony |
not quite std as they also have a cold air feed into to it from the front fog light surround.
|
i've fitted an rcm induction kit with enlarged inlet pipe to my 04 STI. I also fitted a cold air feed and am in the process of fitting a heat shield.
I've had no problems and followed the same route and Bob Rawle did with his own car. Bob advised the mods and mapped the car - i thought if it was good enough for him.... |

Cheers, Is that s direct replacement and is it better than a standard STi filter - any gains ? |
yep - direct fit (cut the lugs off the filter to make it easier though)
gains ... yes but difficult to quantify exactly how much. Prob 5bhp ish |
