The sti intercooler(v4) is the same size as the intercooler of an my97 so you could but dont forget the Y pipe as this is where most of the restriction is cut out allowing greater efficiency.

Jonny great job mate looks the muts nuts.Thanks for the pics mate
Nick sorry to sound dense but is the sti v4 intercooler larger than my standard one and would it fit using the same three mounting points? This sounds like and easier option as Jonny's looks very difficult for a novice.I would be too worried about messing it up.

If you have the slanted i/c then the v4 or my97 will be bigger if you have the straight mount then the difference is minimal but the Y pipe is the most important part.
But some of the other lads can help with the slanted type installation.
