Thanks for doing this video. Super helpful. Just installed this on my mother’s limited SPT 22 wrx. She loved it and the noticeable boost in performance was more than I thought it would in comparison to prior intakes on other cars I’ve experienced
@@bobbyberger18 it’s been great, i had to get it tuned because my DAM was dropping. Since then I have had no issues. Highly recommend the Perrin intake.
@@bobbyberger18 I was getting down to .12, I ended up parking it for a few days until I could get the tune done. I’m in AZ so I also have the issue of having absolutely terrible quality gas out here.
Just installed mine (2023 WRX base) . This isn't my first intake, I've installed multiple over the years. So I installed everything perfectly. However I am not happy. It seems to remove power, not add. First gear always pulled hard all the way through (stock) and now it won't kick in unti aftwr 4,600 rpm. I've only had it on for a day, and I think I'm already going to return it.
Out of curiosity did you verify the MAF sensor is pointing in the proper direction? Also did you clean the excess oil off the filter to ensure the MAF sensor did not get contaminated during the initial startup? I might try spraying some maf cleaner on your sensor. That suck your having issues. Mine worked perfectly and my car is much faster.
@@JDMRightHandDrive yeah but I'll double check tomorrow. It's impossible to installed it backwards. It only goes in one way. And if it was in wrong it probably wouldn't even start. But again I'm gonna double check all connections and see what happens. But you're right, holt shit that filter had a shit load of oil on it. As well as those stupid rings don't stay in place.
@@shadowdemon7770 my guess is some oils got on the sensor. Hope you get it fixed. I am going to swap my filter with a K&N filter later. Because the oil freaks me out a little.
@@JDMRightHandDrive that could definitely be the issue. I'll pick up some spray and try again. Thanks for the input. Much appreciated. Hey if you know anything about upgrading my (WRX base) dual screen to a single screen, please let me know. I found a used one but I'm unsure that it would just be as easy as swap and go.
That's because you did lose power. You almost always will, with an aftermarket intake on a Subaru without a tune. It's not healthy for the engine, either. Only drop in filters, like a K&N flat panel filter should be installed without a tune.
That's awesome man. I would also grab the Perrin inlet while your installing the intake. You will thank me later because the turbo noises are the coolest part of the inlet system. Have fun with your mods and Merry Christmas.
Great content as always ! if you haven't already please get a E-Tune for the intake. We already had one blow up with an ETS intake and the ots map. Watched without sound, so if you already said you got it disregard.
Going to get it tuned very soon. I dont want my FA24 to blow up like the others running the ETS intake. The AFR ratios are reading the same on my Cobb AP3 data logs before and after the install.
@@Clemdogg jb4 is a tuned enough to handle an intake just fine. Stock boost most intakes are safeish, but at higher boost there’s risks. The Cobb doesn’t have the ability to make adjustments without an Etune unless you have access to their software suite.
Glad to hear you enjoy the content. I was not planning on taking off my sweatshirt, but the sun came out and it was Vin Diesel time I guess. LOL Thanks for watching.
Yeah me too! It makes the car so much more fun to drive just hearing the turbo induction noise everything you step on the throttle. Thanks for watching.👍
Thanks for the new SUB! I have the Perrin Turbo inlet installed on my car. That makes the sounds 3 times better than just the intake. I have the video done, just waiting for Perrin to release the product before that video goes live on YT. Thanks for your channel support and have fun with your new VB.
I did not get the tune right away, but my car is pro tuned now that all my mods are installed. The Perrin Intake AFR's show in the safe range with stock tune and Cobb OTS tunes.
Perrin states no tune is required. Personally on my car I was running the Cobb AP OTS tune with the Perrin intake. I ran that tune for about 5 months until I had my car pro tuned. th-cam.com/video/TEX41FlIiBE/w-d-xo.html
What you think the turbo is blowing out? HOT AIR. There’s an intercooler for a reason lol. It’s for more airflow, this isn’t a N/A Honda. Also theres a heat shield for it that he didn’t install
@@bryceb3796 bms intake is great larger diameter piping definitely noticed a difference. None of them are major increases, but it did show improvement on the draggy. Foam filter is supposed to be better however you can always add it to the bms for 30-40
Drunk man tuning has a variety of intake tunes for the VB WRX. Should probably do that. Seems silly to upgrade parts and not the tune which is what makes the most of them.
The AFR's are perfectly safe according to Perrin. Personally with my car if I needed to take my car into Subaru for a big warranty claim, I would just put the OEM parts back on to make sure Subaru cant say anything.
I would buy the intake, it is dyno proven to make 20 whp on a stock car. Best mod beside the Cobb Accessport which adds 40-50 horsepower. Thanks for watching and have fun with your VB WRX.
I was very concerned that it would be too loud as well. It is quieter that the ETS I had before. The ETS produced a deep exhaust not which gave more of a drone effect in the cabin. The Noble Titanium resonates making a higher frequency exhaust pitch that does not bother me so much in cabin. I am very happy with the sound after the last 1000 miles I put on it so far. Its not to loud at all, I will never use the silencer that comes with it. Thanks for watching.
Perrin dyno tested the intake at their shop and the VB picks up around 20hp on a stock tune. I installed the Perrin turbo inlet and that makes even more power and makes even more turbo sounds. That part is not released yet, but video will be coming out in the next few weeks.
Thanks man, I was a little nervous to have my camera in there while driving. But it all worked out and the sound clip was pretty awesome. Thanks for watching.
Hey do you have a high pitch whistle after blowout sounds with yours?? After my blowout sounds and flutter, there is a high pitch whistle, kinda like a launching screaming firework, is this normal??
Thanks I picked it up at 425 Motorsports in Kirkland. The also are sold on Amazon. I had to have one just like the guy from Tokyo Drift. Thanks for watching!
I notice mostly torque. when the turbo kick in. The intake make the bigger different in my opinion. Car is more responsive, I really want the Perrin FMIC next. I also wish another company would release a more affordable J-pipe. The ETS one is so expensive at $1300.
Anytime you change something on the car from OEM stock parts, Subaru could choose to not honor the manufactures warranty if something catastrophic happened with the powertrain. I would just make sure to put the stock intake and all other parts back to stock before taking car to Subaru for a warranty claim.
The AFR is looking good in the data logs. The numbers are the same before and after the install. However I will be getting a tune very soon for piece of mind. I would like to have it tuned by Perrin Performance in Oregon after I get the Perrin FMIC and J-pipe.
Any change relating to airflow, you need to get a tune. Sure the car is smart enough for some variable changes, but I don’t care. Stock tune is meant to be as universal as possible. And considering how finicky and sensitive Subaru’s are to any sort of change. If you want the most out of your car’s life get a protune. E tune’s aren’t even that much. $250-$300 to save my engine, plus better performance? Yes pls. Ever since the Green Speed update dropped. A lot of tuners are now offering Open Source tunes as an option. So no need for an Access Port, just need a good quality Tactrix cable.
How did your installation go? I am considering getting this for my new 24 WRX. But I have little experience working on cars, so I am nervous about the install.
Seems like its much easier to get underneath for a few of those bolts. No great videos on that part of bolting... low and blind. I might pay a shop or something to do it. How DIY is this really ?
@@TheVikingRaid For the sake of warranty, I did not. I know I could get better gains with one but it's still nice without and my dealership will still cover me if something happens. I would really like to get her on a dyno to see what just the intake and exhaust will do with no tune.
Seems like it only makes cool sounds. All it’s doing is sucking in hot engine bay air. You would actually improve performance by buying an AEM dryflow filter and removing the factory charcoal filter.
I installed a TS VTA BOV and it made my car run weird. I had to install the stock BOV to get my car pro tuned. I will be getting myself the new Perrin recirculation BOV. If you want extra turbo noises I would recommend getting the Perrin turbo inlet. th-cam.com/video/pPAvFHt6jc4/w-d-xo.html
No offense to you, love your videos. But, other than noises, this is actually more inefficient than stock. The stock ram air box does a good job of directing air. I don't understand why Perrin didn't design a box to go around that intake filter to help divert air.
I agree with you there, this does suck in hot air. I installed the heat shield about 2 weeks later and that made a noticeable difference you can feel. Did you see the @Subispeed intake shoot out video? The reviewed the Perrin, AEM and ETS intakes. Pretty good review to see all the dyno comparisons. Thanks for the channel support.
Pro tune is a must with this and it will void warranty as well. Keep that in mind...dont let anyone say it wont ..the dealership will absolutely give you a hardtime if you need warranty work done .
I ran my Perrin Intake with the Cobb OTS map. Perrin Performance did tons of dyno pulls to verify their intake system AFR values are within a safe range with factory maps and Cobb OTS maps. I did later on have my car pro tuned. th-cam.com/video/TEX41FlIiBE/w-d-xo.html

WOW turbo sounds, INSANE!
lmfao
Questions is that sound the intake or the BOV?
The turbo whistle can be heard after installing the intake, however the turbo inlet more than doubles the turbo flutter and whistle sound.
Hey so im thinking about adding a cold air intake to my 2023 wrx do you think it will void the warranty
The AFR's are perfectly safe according to Perrin. Personally with my car if I needed to take my car into Subaru for a big warranty claim, I would just put the OEM parts back on to make sure Subaru cant say anything.
If you could only get the Perrin chargepipe or the Perrin intake which would you choose?

I was curious if no tune on it and a the cold air intake voids any warranty’s?
Perrin says no tune is required. I ran the intake on my car for about 6 months with Cobb OTS tune without any issues before I had my car protuned.
Great video I noticed you didn't install the heat shield do you really need it sorry I saw at the very end it was on backorder
Its all good, yeah I want to get that heat shield in asap. It should be coming soon according to Perrin. Heat shield install is complete now!
Has anyone used the bottom mounting hole on the pipe for the bottom bracket to give the MAF wire some slack? Would that work?
I'm having a hard time just pulling the stock intake off the car. Loosened the clamp and removed the bolt. Thing just won't pull out. Any tips?
There is a lower hose clamp that holds the intake to the turbo inlet. Loosen that and it should pull up and out.
Do you need the heatsheild
I loved the video from under the hood haha
