Default Intercooler upgrade

Hi there. Ive got a 1994 WRX fully de-catted and induction kit. Would there be any benefit in fitting an intercooler from a later spec 1999 UK turbo? Cheers.

Yes, it performs far better than the original intercooler but try to source the alloy y piece from an STi to go with it.
