Default WRX to STI intercooler 03MY

Can the STI one just fit on where the old one was? I presume the pipework is the same?

AFAIK Yep !!

You also need the "Y" piece that comes with the STi jobby !! if buying used make sure it comes. Original about £68 plus VAT !!

Also Samco hoses a better bet than OEM ones. If you have a strut brace this will have to come off to fit the STi TMIC..

happy to help the only way your samco hose will not work is if it isnt the "y" shaped piece that fits to the under side of the intercooler as thats why the sti samco's are different as they already have the metal "y" piece
