My first Scooby dooby
 
The time has come i finally went and got my first subaru!!:lol1: been after one for years and saw this one and couldnt say no. im also new to scoobynet so be nice, would love to hear any feed back on my car,also i wondered if anyone knew whether these are subaru wheels as the bloke i got from told me he thought they were factory upgrades, its 294bhp with dyno print out and has a k&n which reading on your forum im beginning to worry about my maf , so if anyone can give me any helpfull info at all regarding induction or any other usefull info and feedback i would appreciate it thanks Danny

welcome to the club mate, looks like you got a decent 1st Impreza :thumb:
big debates regards to the induction kit/ original airbox with a good panel filter.

I prefer the original box with K&N panel filter. In my eyes & many others, unless your about 350bhp upwards a panel filter will be perfectly ok. :cool:

But even having an induction kit does not mean the end of your maf sensor, but there is the old heat soak issue as it is taking in warmer air from the engine bay.

Nice car mate:thumb: As long as it's not an oiled filter your MAF will be ok.

dannyboy709 19 October 2010 12:56 PM

oh right thanks im sure its not oiled but thinkin i may just replace the maf with a new one as a safe guard!worth it? i never intended on getting asilver classic but the longer i have it the more i like the colour, was really after a mica red one. Any idea about my wheels im not that keen on them but if they are actual subaru wheels i will def hang on to them thanks danny

Welcome to SN dude:thumb:

Nice car:)

Alright Danny, Chris said you'd joined here!

Im 99% certain they are not Subaru Impreza alloys, they are aftermarket alloys.

I would change back to a decent panel filter, I had a Blitz Sus air intake on my old Scoob and it killed my MAF quite quickly. Fit a decent panel filter and then remove the air box snorkal from the inner wing, doing this will give you that whooshing sound the current filter makes.

That dyno printout is generous!

Enjoy mate.

thanks steve yeh i think im defo going to get the original airbox back on there for peace of mind! i do stand corrected the dyno was actually 284.6 not 295 not much difference and im not sure where it was done off the top of my head, i really need to have a good look through its history to see exactly what its had done.loving having one at last despite the insurance and fuel costs!
