Ahhh, Fresh Air!
BR cold air intake installed. It goes down into fender wll and sucks air from basically sea level. I put the ram scoop back in and basically cut off the part that it attaches to the snorkus - which is a retarded piece of engineering meant only to hush the turbo. Now you can really hear the sucker sucking air and when the turbo spools up and gets on the boost it sounds like a typhoon compared to stock.
The parts:
The stock intake and airbox:
Everything removed (that is the inlet for the snorkus and it goes down into fender and comes out right next to the inlet. Retards):
The snorkus (silencer) removed:
Snorkus cut:
Installed:
Ram scoop back in place and all done:

NRG Hood Dampers & Worx Pulley
Hood struts below. Way nicer than the stupid bar. WTF Subaru get with it even my Ford has dampers!
Back of OEM (left) vx Worx (right):
Fronts:
Installed below. The Worx Tuning one is seriously like 6 or 7 pounds lighter than the OEM pulley. It is non-underdriven too so no problems. My Ford one is underdriven and the lighting is really the only thing that suffers from not spinning the alternator quick enough.

STi Mileage Count
867!
Time for an oil change and a speeding ticket. Well, at least an oil change.
Gonna put the lightweight pulley on tonight maybe if there is time after installing the NRG hood dampers.
Can anyone say lightweight battery? Got a screaming deal on one and it is 25 lbs lighter than stock! Frees up some engine room too for a catch can or two.
