praedet Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 No (there is more that has to be done for it to work, but it does bolt on), and no (it is not better)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

praedet Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 beacause the plastic IM has a smoother flow path and does not conduct heat as much... Plus unless you are pushing 40 plus psi, it will not break Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwiener2 Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 The STi intake manifold IS a direct bolt on. But all the other pieces that connect to the IM from the LGT are not. I also agree that the only reason to swap it in is bling factor My Mods List (Updated 8/22/17) 2005 Outback FMT Running on Electrons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
