No!
your WRX intercooler is good for 340 bhp
a wast of money unless you want it for looks only
many more ways to spend to improve your car

If you upgrade the turbo then it would be advisable to upgrade the intercooler.
From experience the wrx tmic doesn't hack it above 320hp

What intercooler are you talking about?
the 06-07 intercooler will handle around 350 look at the link and is a good upgrade for a classic WRX

The hawkeye wrx. With 18 gram turbo did actually make 328hp on the rollers and contrary to expectations it was felt the TM was holding things back.
