WRX Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Hey all. I found this Intake tube that fits my '01 Legacy L 2.5 and I have some questions. Would this pipe have a higher diameter than stock? And what would I need to hook it up to a Greddy Airinx Universal Filter? http://www.thepartsbin.com/catalog/?N&uts=true&Ntt=REPS315502+2000+Subaru+Legacy+Intake_Tube+Bolton_Premiere&tpbSuruintusubarulegacy20002001boltonpremierereps3155021547005&tpbsendcid=tpbfroogle Filter: http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/greddy-airinx-replacement-element-blue-universal-p-22894.html?utm_source=googlebase&utm_campaign=googlebase&utm_content=6925 Thanks, WRX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 dig around here for some dimensions/info http://www.greddy.com/products/airinx/airinx-parts/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRX Posted August 8, 2012 Author Share Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) which size would fit? that's all I ask. Do you think that pipe is 3 inches? Does it matter which size filter I get to fit the pipe? or is it just the size of the filter itself? Edited August 8, 2012 by WRX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I just don't know, sorry. If it is, 80mm should be good (figuring in wall thickness) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRX Posted August 8, 2012 Author Share Posted August 8, 2012 Would I need an MAF adapter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 maybe email the suppliers. Or search/ask over at NASIOC. There's no end to the mods those guys have tried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRX Posted August 8, 2012 Author Share Posted August 8, 2012 I did the stupid live chat thing and the guy wasn't helpful at all. I was like "I just want to know the diameter to determine if it will fit what I want to do, and he just asked the same questions it asks when you order it. I wasted about 30 minutes talking to it. I'll try NASIOC. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Why are you wanting an intake in the first place? There is no performance to be gained here.... GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnW Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Agree. Subaru's design pulls the coldest air in from the outside. These usually pull hot air from the engine compartment. The only upgrade I have seen is a clean K&N or Perrin washable filter dropped into the factory air box and that's only if its serviced properly and the car is Turbocharged and tuned for it.

torxxx Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Would I need an MAF adapter? No, 2001 2.5 SOHC uses a MAP sensor instead of the MAF sensor. The only way you will get almost as cool of air to your intake running that setup, is to have your cone filter installed INSIDE the wheel well. Any air drawn from the engine bay is gonna be ~30F+ warmer than outside the engine bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
