February 2, 201510 yr I am hoping that the circled air intake thing is not put on all cars as mine doesn't have one... I have a 2003 impreza Blob 2.0, with an engine bay like so.... should i be worried it doesn't have this thing? (It has got a high flow panel air filter and ninja back box but no other mods I am aware of that effect air... bits Please help ease my mind and educate me :)
February 2, 201510 yr Looks like yours has been removed at some point, there should be one there as it direct cold air to your intake
February 2, 201510 yr Author Why would someone remove this and should I buy a new one? What do I need to type in on ebay to find one?
February 2, 201510 yr http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUBARU-IMPREZA-WRX-STI-AIR-INTAKE-VENT-/231466869668?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item35e48023a4 That's it. There's a possibility it was removed for a cone filter and never put back or just lost. Just to confirm, is there a hole in your wing for it?
February 2, 201510 yr Author Thanks man, and in my "book of everything done to my car ever" it's not mentioned, maybe just someone breaking it off by accident or it being lost somewhere, who knows. I shall purchase a new one thanks buddy
February 2, 201510 yr It shoudnt affect you at all, since the turbo is going to suck the air anyways :P the only thing is that the piece will get the air from that section, that is where the colder air can be taken, but still, no big deal :)
February 2, 201510 yr Here is my 2.0 Wrx sti type uk prodrive engine bay. Slightly out of date pic as I had few vhanges in engine bay done.
