to the Op- an intake will make the turbo sound louder but the "whoosh" from letting off throttle will depend on the BPV. If you go full atmospheric (i wouldn't recommend) you will get a much louder sound vs a 50/50 or full recirc. There are BPV's that are full recirculating that are noticeably...
You most likely wont see huge gains with the intake alone. Think of tuning/modding as an overall package not individual parts. a CAI might get you a couple horsepower but it can/will breathe better and allow you to take advantage when you tune due to increased airflow.
If you fish for...
I dont think a separate version is necessary. Just add additional power and the items listed to the PP and instead of 2k make it what? $3500-4k? and be done with it. And like 1320 said maybe not 400 but 350hp/375TQ
Full race makes some good products but honestly i think their kits are overpriced. Just my .02
with that said though i am curious to see exactly what they did with the turbo/headifold to mount it that high.
maybe someone can educate me on this but by looking at the picture of the side exhausts you would still retain the rest of the catback all the way out to the rear mufflers? Seems stupid to me. If you want side exhausts just add them and be done with it. Looks like nothing but extra weight to me...
Wow... looking at all that i will say its a very welcome change for me. Coming from subaru's which while they have STI parts available they are usually very expensive and hard to come by. To see available parts direct from an arm of the manufacturer at a reasonable price and large availability...
If money is concern and if your dealer wont swap then shop around. Typically dealers purchase their tires from a 3rd party like a local firestone, kauffman etc. so the prices they get are usually higher than what an independent place can offer on tires. Plus most shops offer free mounting if you...
