Word of advice not sure if its the same on your model but when you put it on your car using the stock map the ecu seems to have a fit and get confussed and limits some of the power.

Thats the 1 I used but I noticed yours is a later model. Might still work as it fits into the wing.

Filter, you dont need an induction kit on a new age STI unless your running well over 400bhp, a good filter, ie STI, Green, Cosworth etc will do you

+1 for an uprated panel filter.

Nooooooooooooo! not a do luck panel filter, well just a sponge or some stocking material will give you better filtration.
Do luck are nasty, sorry to say but fit one of those and you will be putting so much crap into your engine due to lack of filtration.....
Stick with the decent ones already posted.
