I think that the UK 300 intercooler is the same as the newage WRX intercooler, so I'd hold out for an STI7/8 intercooler instead.

(Note, the information is just what I believe to be correct. It may be completely wrong )

Default Probs....

Watch out for front mount related problems.

Nobody tells you that you can get horrible dump valve related problems, not only with a cheap kit. I paid STUPID money for a seriously large 'cooler, got the car re-mapped and it was superb to drive flat-out, but lift off and the car really hesitated. Like a boost cut in severity, NOT NICE....

Fixed mine by stripping the dump valve and fitting the weakest spring I could find.... that doesn't leak under boost, that's another THEY don't tell you about.

For sensible power increases you need an STI 7/8 'cooler with it's plumbing, it is the high flow pipe-work that really helps with performance, not just the bigger 'cooler.

The Aussie sites have loads of info, but PM me if you'd like to find one....
