Ahh, they said I was loud and nice sounding, but said there was no "woosh" coming from under the hood.
Time to the car back under the knife for some work.

dat blue subie mug deesigner
well by jeezum...stay away from the board for a while and the damm bursts. glad to see others have taken it upon themselves to build their on version of the intake! i have been very busy doing everything and doing nothing....frigggin vermont winter was not very kind to my hands or wrists or elbow etc....[furniture designer and builder but not so much in a bout a year,carpal tunnel arthritis and nerve damage] so my car sat the whole winta outside not being worked on except for a few things here nad there. mainly a modified wrx downpipe that will soon be shipped off to swaintech battery relocation and rewiring, a cupla o' wrx ic's that are being frankenstiened, some new brackets to relocate the header tank and various alum parts to replace rusted metal parts.....and i waiting on my buddy to have time to fire up his alum welder to repalce some damaged front end parts all to be hiding behind a different facia just got done with cutting up my old rotten90l wagon so i have a bunch of spare parts laying around some r good somercrap! the mug thing just became a pain cuz i could not find a supplier for bulk amounts and i learned if u gonna do it do it multiple times its a lot easier to be jigged up and have several to do than just doing one here and there. now if i could just get my garage built it would become legazees laboratory and start churning out stuff everyone on this board could use....and buy!
When I put the coffe mug into my car I droped the resonator by mistake so I can take some pics of the inside if you guys are interested. It slpited right in the midle so it's fixable.
The mileage didn;t improve...although...6-7000 rpm ...you can't tell any difference, right?
But the sound is awsome...I took the snorkel out as well and believe me...now it's LOUD. At 3000 rpm and deceleration...it sounds like a choper by my side. (take the exageration )
I wonder how much louder it's gonna be with the K&N filter that'll come this days...I let you know.

I don't have pics from manufactureing process but I can take some pics with it on the car. So...I'll post some. (although mine is not that nice and neat as others are )
I had with stock air filter first but without the snorkus...it was loud. Not a real gain of power but u can hear the intake. Turbo and even the BOV.
I put the K&N panel after 1 month, a week ago...WOW...so much louder, the gain of power...I think the turbo spools faster, and it seems like u have more respons after 3500.

One big box of plastic plus two pipes in the passanger fender. It keeps some "dust" out. One pipe takes air from inside the fender...to the plastic box, the ather pipe takes the air to the air filter box. If you take the air box out, you'll see the pipe going down. As i was discussed before in some other threads, there is not much the snorkus do, except the sound cutting.
In order to take it out you have to move the plastic underneath the fender. You'll see.
