In case you don't want to go to the extremes of fitting an STI one, the Standard WRX will fit with little or no fuss at-all, remove the old intercooler, use the 'y' piece off the original intercooler on the wrx one, and then it will slot into place, the brackets will need modifying, as will the dump valve pipes, but there's not bashing of the engine tie bar brackets or anything needed.....
I'm gonna do this on my my00 with the 2.5.... i'm not aiming too high, so i figure this will suffice for me....

I didn't bash any tie bar brackets or cut any bits up to fit the STI TMIC. Brackets still need modifying and the same for the DV. There seems to be similar effort involved with both.
