Default K&N 57i

Hi, I've just been given one of these by a friend who recently sold his Impreza. Thinking of eventually fitting it to my 02 WRX Wagon, however notice that there are a good number of posts suggesting that these 'aint so good due to drawing in warm air. Is there anything that can be done to improve this situation i.e ducting to direct cool air at it or should I just bin it and buy an Apollo? Also, any advice on fitting (should I decide to fit) would be appreciated.

ditch the induction kit mate

the airbox is good upto 400 after that then an induction kit would be needed

any decent panel filter

most people go for green cotton or cosworth

hope this helps
