do i need a bigger intercooler

i have a wrx 03 with full exhaust system with no cats and a hks panel filter. I will be getting the car remap for these mods. Do i need a bigger intercooler how much bhp can the standard one hold. Would it be worth getting a sti or hks intercooler do these help the car a lot or not.

Your standard one will be sufficient for what you want, your turbo will restrict the ammount of power you can get, along with the injectors (which is a good thing).
Your brakes could do with upgrading, makes for a quicker car believe it or not

So what sort of power are you looking for?

You should get around that figure with your mods and a remap.
