Please post on the EJ25 forum. I do not know of anyone here that currently runs an intake(whether cai or shorty) on their STI. The people on the EJ25 forum can answer your questions. I know at least two people who removed their resonator though so that may be the wise route.
But I would be very wary of putting an intake, which is designed for EJ20's, into an EJ25.

An intake is not a "stand alone" mod, like some think it is. You'll be ok, but it will work better as a part in a overall build up.

Dave, with the SUS, I would be careful on the method you install it. You will notice there is a metal piece that acts like a "blocker" for the intake. I would experiment with it on or off. I heard stories where older SUS's will need that blocker while the newer SUS's shouldn't use that blocker but the newer ones will come with it. It may throw a CEL for you though with that intake.

My experience
I have a 2004 STi and have the K & N Typhoon on it and it runs great! The car has a "YOU CAN FEEL IT" power increase. You dont need a dyno to tell you that, its that big a difference. No problems what so ever.
This is, ONE OF THE FEW PRODUCTS ON THE MARKET THAT REALLY WORKS ON OUR CARS!! Hell ive spent a $1000 on other things (blah) and lost HP!
The Blitz is like the screen on my front door, id be scared to death to put that thing on my car. Yes i know, i should not have said that. Im gonna get my hand slapped!
Its just an oppinion on the Blitz thing, no facts to back it up!
