quikslvr9k Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 I have recently installed a short ram intake on my 04 wrx. Is there any chance of this doing any damage to the car, in any way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setright Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Main concern would be the quality of the filter. Do you have a photo of your own installation or a similar one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Setright Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 From what I have seen, Injen products are good and well thought-out. The only fear related to some of the cold-air-intakes is that it places the filter too far forward and in particular too low down, so that water ingestion can become a problem. If you have a short ram, then that does not apply in any way. Enjoy your intake! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
on3letsgo Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 I'm a glad owner of a 02 WRX & thought about putting on an intake. I've heard many people advise otherwise. Do you notice anything different besides sound? BTW, you won't do any damage to your new car, but when you clean/oil the filter don't oil it too much.

carfreak85 Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 WRX's don't seem to really respond to intakes. The stock airbox is good enough for the STI, so it must not be much of a restriction! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
