Using this Mishimoto air intake kit is straightforward. First, gather common hand tools and set aside about an hour for installation. It's a bolt - on unit that fits directly with the 2015+ Subaru WRX. Make sure to connect the intake to the stock intake duct so it can get cool air for better performance. When it comes to the air filter, it's oiled and has a larger filtration area. You don't need to replace it often. Just clean it when it gets dirty and it can be reused for a long time. If you choose the enclosed airbox, install it to protect the intake from engine bay heat. As for maintenance, regularly check the wire - reinforced silicone hose for any signs of damage. Since it's made in the USA and comes with a lifetime warranty, you can be confident in its quality. But always follow the stock tune to keep safe AFRs and avoid using fuel other than 93 octane if you want to achieve the maximum dyno - proven gains.
