Default for everyone that wonders...

on thurs im bringing the under manifold piece that chokes the factory intake.

if ANYONE has ANY question after that why its a worthwhile mod. they need to be molested with a cattleprod.


P.S. this tinkerer BS has got to go, someone upgrade my title to something ghey before i loose my mind.

um.. i'm no expert, but i think people are making alot of power out of the stock intake using a TMIC.. if i'm not mistaken, in some cases, MORE power than WITH an aftermarket intake system.
now, with a FMIC, the stock intake system doesnt fit.. or something liek that so you'd need to upgrade to a ram air system..

i'm not exactly sure what you're talking about, so if what i just said has nothing to do with what you're talking about.. then disreguard all that i just wrote and think i'm an idiot.

hmm i also want to see if i'm still a tinkerer

Are you talking about the snorkus on the intake?

ah got it. So, did you just remove all the twist and turns, or did you replace the whole turbo inlet.

Here's the Samco that's on my car:


But I believe Phil's is the Perrin one, which seems a higher quality:

yep i had the samco one on the blue wrx, but i collapsed it. perrin is a bit nicer, but its splittin hairs until you get nuts.

psa, though. the perrin is about 27348923789473908582 times easier to install.
