I wouldnt bother if I were you; Imprezas dont benefit from 'induction kits'; quite the opposite in fact. Id stick with the standard airbox and an STI panel filter. Smoother, quicker, quieter and itll not be ******** my airflow meter...

Obvious the seller is very knowledgable on induction...having a Blitz SUS filter...aka "The MAF killer"
Thing is...on a MY98, the "air feed" sucks air in from under the bonnet (the black plastic bit to the bottom left of the main picture) which will be at under-bonnet temperature, so unless he's removed the resonator under the bumper and routed a cold air feed (which it looks like he hasn't). Or if the bonnet vent cover isn't removed - the heat shield is useless!
