13 WRX Boost Leak Fixed

Nobody will buy this part unless they are faced with a horrific general boost leak for our vehicles. I'm giving this part 4 stars because I wish I had at least some assembled instructions. I mean they have a youtube video on installation but I would rather just see a piece of paper showing how to remove the intercooler with screws here and here, disconnect the BPV, remove, attach the hose like this, attach the intercooler . and go choo-choo with proper boost and better idle. The part appears to be of good quality, you don't really see the part when it's installed so personally I'd buy the cheapest paint available if you just want to fix the problem without being fussy when you literally post install 2 inches see. Reliable Mishimoto quality, installation took about 25 minutes, although the description says about an hour. Again, I'm neither an experienced wrench nor an ignorant beginner. The right tool also helps. Basically 12mm, a ratchet, some kind of extension, some pliers and either an 8mm or flat head for clamps.

Pros
  • Nice Packaging
Cons
  • Functionality
