My mapper commented on mine. Apparently the OEM fitment allows some cushioning between the engine and the air filter housing when the engine is moving about. This is lost when you fit the Zero pipe. He said they are not a good idea, although they look great! I have kept mine on because it has been mapped with it.

Makes sense i guess, sure Subaru wouldn't have bothered with putting the crinkly bit (for want of a better word) in if they didn't need to ;)

I have found that there is movement in the pipe.If fitted in a certain position it allows movement in the silicon ends.Took a bit of time turning the pipe around but once there fitted spot on.
