Ok im new to all the modding on the impreza

love my car and have taken advise from people on here before

but was stood in the pub car park in Darlington when this lad pulls up in another Impreza.

We start talking and he asks me about the car and what i have on it.
Nice enough lad at first i think likes his cars

So i say ive got

WRX 05 turbo

Prodrive
K&N Induction kit
Upgraded TMIC
Red Stuff Breaks & Disks
Ninja Exhaust system decatted
Turbo Timer Fitted ( on advise from this site )
New tyres all Toya

Otherwise all standard

So he then goes of on a rant about how my induction kit is CRAP
and i should only use a VIPER COLD AIR INTAKE

Ok now i love the car and he never stopped going on or giving me a chance to ask the difference.

So here i am

Can anyone tell me if its just another Induction Kit or is it something that would make a massive difference.

Thanks

K&N are a large company, so to say it is crap is a load of ****, you are likely to be paying a little extra for the name though.

Any induction kit that gets more colder air into the engine is better. Open cone filters are not good as they can suck up the warm air in the engine bay. Filters that need oiling are also a no go as they can clog up the MAF sensor.

Thanks for reply Rsed

But am i right in thinking it pretty much does the same job just basically another induction kit

Ah ok thanks

think even RCM use K&N filters on the gobstopper, might be a good idea to put in a cold feed though

Ok Radboy69

Yeah just looked at one on ebay funny enough
sits in the side panel away from engine
guess this would make it colder
