If you are fitting it in addition to other mods, ie. injectors, remap etc. then you would benefit. You would need the sti scoop and undertray to get the air toi the whole area of the intercooler.

I got my I/C with the y pipe as well, but I would presume that most would sell as a set.

No real advantage without a turbo change IMO.
