Hi, I would really appreciate some info about classic intercoolers and pipework.

this is my turbo to intercooler pipe, obviously it is damaged and will not seal correctly to the blue conector pipe (likely to be a bodge by previous owner??).

My questions:

1. is this the corect intercooler/pipe for a classic v2 sti?
2. are intercoolers different or interchangeable between versions and/or sti, wrx, uk cars?
3. what options do I have for upgrading as this seems to be a design weakness?

cheers,
Kev

Dodge job looks like ! is the blue ring off the I/C pipe ? or inlet ?

blue piece of samco-type hose was conecting the intercooler inlet to the turbo. does that answer your question?

that's what I thought, a bodge fix. but is the intercooler pipe the right one or is it not right for the car?

thanks for reply

update:
gone for an upgraded samco kit, see how it goes.
