A'ight so about the intake... it had no shield of any kind under it. Which, for a "show car" as they claimed this to be, is ok. But for me it's not, what with the rain and such.
SO, I took the stock intake off Subie 1 and put that on for now. I do intend to replace the intake, but with one that's more practical. Probably a top-mount.
I also plan on swapping over my brakes. I had larger, slotted rotors on old Subie and beefier pads. This is another area (along with the lack of tuning or upgraded injectors) where I think the previous owner overlooked some important/practical details to go with the performance and exterior changes.
