Negative. For that much money you can get an apexi power intake (for 92-96 wrx) that fits perfectly though. It's a short-ram intake but it's possible to keep the airbox with it instead of using their cone filter. But if ALL you want is a coffee cup a homemade can is the way to go (intake sticky has everything you want to know).

I wanted a short-ram intake, so I got the apexi. It's kinda rice, but I love the noise and All of my other mods will look stock so I don't care.

Yes it fits fine. There's one less nipple, so you have to tee together the canister purge and BCS lines.

Sweet thanks man, I'm not sure what teeing the lines really entails so pictures would be most helpful. I looked on the apexi web site and they dont sell iut anymore on there. I guess I could get one from ebay. Hopefully its the right one.

I got mine from Rallysportdirect.com. Search "Power Intake" and it'll be the one for V1/V2 WRX. It's usually on back-order but comes in within a couple of weeks of your order.

Unfortunately I don't have the stock boost control solenoid hooked up, I am using a manual boost controller which lacks the vacuum line going to the resonator. But on the stock BCS, this line is plugged into the bottom of the resonator. Now that I think about it, even on the stock setup you can just ditch this line all together and cap the nipple on the BCS; That's how my car was for 2 years before I put my MBC on. I forget what the line is used for, but it doesn't affect boost operation or fuel cut that I could observe.
