Question


I have a 1993 WRX, the fins on the intercooler are a bit bent, seen an ad. for a STI 4 Intercooler.

Anyone know if this will fit, will it make much difference ?

also, Samco hoses are they worth it ?
If so who sells them ?

cheers as normal

Barge.

SAMCO hoses are worth it IMHO

Cheapest I've seen Rally Design

Only problem is getting them in stock.

I've done this conversion myself on my 93 wrx, mail me and i will tell you how to do it, took me 6 weeks to work it out, then about 2 hours to fit once i knew what i was doing.

Rich I'm in reading myself almost everyday. I might do this while saving for a FMIC as I think my car is gonna need it. Can you help me out with the parts and everything? I can get the intercooler off Colin if you could.

Guys, if either of you are buying this off Coling in Reading then please make sure that you get the one which has an oe dump valve attached to it, I brought mine of Colin, and i know he has one whcih as got a dump valve pipe attached to it, this wont be easy to fit compared to the ones which have the oe dump valve attached
