STi-8 IC onto V5/6 Classic.. Parts Help?
ok hopefully getting an sti-8 IC plus BOV from a member on here, so was just wondering fi you guys could help me and point me in the right direction for getting the other parts required to fit?
i believe i need:
STi-8 IC bracket? {1x Newage O/S Intercooler Bracket (Subaru, £20.30 - S21885AA293) }
Samco Superflex 32mm hose? {1x Samco 35mm Superflex Hose (Merline Motorsport, £42.04 - SFL35)}
and a 90 Degree Samco Elbow? {1x Samco 51mm 90 degree Elbow (Merlin Motorsport, £20.05 - E90-51)}
is that all i need extra? wheres the best place to buy these bits?
any other bits i require?
Cheers
p.s. i know the OEM strut bar doesnt fit with this intercooler, does anyone know of an after market IC that will fit with the STi-8 Top Mount?
Cheers

This may or may not be of any help...
I know it's for a MY97/98 phase 1.5 but, if anything's applicable, you can cherry pick advice from Carl Davey's walkthrough: Carl Davey, specialist Subaru Impreza parts supply

Carl was 'forced' to do it because the New Age's BOV/flange wouldn't clear the ICV.
Try physically offering up the STi 8 in the space first, so as to ascertain whether you'd need to do the same - it could be that he's used an STi 7 TMIC, but the STi 8 one's BOV flange might be sited slightly differently, allowing the BOV to clear the ICV
. Just a small thought...

ok no problem, if i get the bits together it should be fine, as i'll be getting richard henry to fit it anyway.
so as long as i have all the bits required for him, it should be cool
