Not too sure about the drop in temps, but the inside of the intercooler (looking through the inlet manifold side) doesn't look as well made as the ARC intercooler.
Have you thought about an STI 7/8 intercooler.

Kips,
you don't need the bracket, I bought one from Subaru....but they ordered me the wrong one, so I went to B&Q and bought a piece of metal from there that had the holes already drilled in it (cost about 89p) and what do you know it was the perfect size. Hold on I'll go and try to take a photo of it.

It's about 3 inches long...haha with 3 large holes drilled in it, couldn't believe that it worked so well, just need an 8mm nut and bolt, although the intercooler is held in place without it, but i think it will be best to have it
