And as for risking poor idle for power, I guess you'd have to ask anyone who's ever put upgraded cams in anything...
So far, the only real evidence (including anecdotal) I've seen about the effects of an aftermarket intake on an NA, maf-based Subaru is the thread on nasioc by williaty ( http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/show....php?t=1471819) |
All I'm saying is "my idle drops really low and dies a lot until it relearns" doesn't sound like the intake is worth it. How much power has it given you? My guess is it's not 20+hp, and if it's not more than 20hp, you're not really going to feel it anyway.
So what you've got is a placebo noisemaker that makes your car run poorly.
