does anyone have it on there STi and have they been getting any trouble?

 

nope, what problems are you encountering?

 

i haven't bought it yet but i read on another forum that after they had put in a CAI it started losing power in 5th gear from 60-80

 

I have the Blitz SUS intake, Godspeed Downpipe, Greddy EVO cataback, and turboxs's HPBC.

My car runs like a horse on steriods. No problems

 

Read the intake debate sticky in the EJ20 forum. Everything there applies to the STi as well.

 

I have probably read every post out there concerning the Blitz SUS and everybody has different opinions about it. So I decided to buy it and try it out myself. About the only good thing I can say about it is that it makes my car sound awesome. Other than that, power gains were minimal and the damned thing sucks in so much dust and I didn't even know it. After putting about 10k miles with the filter on, I decided to wash it. When I took the filter out and looked inside, I almost s... my pants. Dust all over the inner walls and on the rubber lining . There have been many debates in the past about this filter and my opinion of it is this; if you want your car to sound cool and have decent gains, then by all means buy it, but all I know is that it sucks up a hell of a lot of dust and will eventually have a detrimental effect on the engine!

 

I've had a Blitz SUS on my car for the past 10k miles and just pullee everything out to put in a samco pipe. While it was all out I looked inside and ran my finger through and there was only a lil rubber residue from the stock pipe, the inside of the intake itself was as clean as can be. All I can say is that I'm very pleased with this intake.

did you have the old version of the SUS? The old one really sucked, it was in a test against 3 other filters and was just plain ****ty, but the newer version is a lot better. And, well, i wouldn't really call CT clean unless you were comparing it to like TX or CO, then it's a lil less dusty
