Thats totally different. Impreza's and Pulsars have top mounts with bonnet vents for direct cold air to feed through.

well over priced imo
large bore pipework is often very over rated. amazing what can actually flow through smaller paipe work. after all, how big are the ports in the head that draw the air in?
