That's the same pump i have in mine. Been in there for about 18 months now, still going strong.

Use the sock from your OE pump though, not the one supplied with the one you purchase.bb

How much Kw's and torque would be gained from doin a tbe, cold air intake and a retune?? so i have a 08 wrx, 169kw and 320 Nm, if i did these mods what would i be lookin at.
also would it be worth while changing the intercooler or would factory be fine?
