IIRC you can cut the 99 seal under the bonnet to get it to line up..

You have the offset i/c, yes? Why not also purchase a 97 onwards intercooler and spend your time fitting that? You'll get a performance boost fitting a larger i/c and you won't have to play with the rubber skirt.

Cheers for the ideas, fitting a later intercooler seems a good one..!
NENO how much would you wanting for yours?

Also anyone knows if a STI intercooler would be much better?

cheers

Sorry Jack I'm not the one selling, it was sc00by57

I've had by eyes open for an STI version, and they seem to sell for £150 - 250 depending on condition. I've read some peoples comments that the STI version is actually no better than standard my97 onward version - I can't confirm this though, perhaps someone else can?

If you really want a significant improvement the APS version seems pretty good but then you may need to think about a remap to make the most of it.

I just recently aquired a 99 turbo bonnet for my95, I knew the underside of the bonnet scoop wouldnt line up with older intercooler.....
Has any one figured out the best way of lining up the underside of the 99 bonnet with the older intercooler??

cheers

Cool

And what about WRX STi MY02 IC vent on GT MY98 Works pretty good together with cone filter insulatint/heat shield. Car pulls like big atmo.
