[BrentMid]

I posted some pictures and notes from my installation of an Injen cold air intake on my 2008 WRX hatchback.

Nice Job!

The stock 08 intake is SUCH a piece of crap. What happened? The 02-07's is wonderful by comparison. Anyway, easily fixable I guess. Enjoy the newfound power!

Holy crap that stock intake has a lot of twists and bends in it. No wonder it makes sense that aftermarket intakes for 08s+ makes some power.

That MAF is way to close to to engine , you better measure it compared to stock , you might be leaning out , check your a/f ratios! That intake looks like its for a 06-07 model , the intake on a 08 is different , its a legacy set up . Since the new 08 came out with 265 horse , I wonder who will sell the complete swap , with bigger turbine , cat , and map ?...........Let me know fellas I want it .

So would an intake still be considered a bad first mod?

Not for an 08. Just get a reputable one, not some ebay garbage. Cobb, SPT, still probably two of the better ones to stick with.
