Quick Question about the WRX intercooler
I'm new to the forum, and wasn't sure where to post, but I'm after a bit of info from other Subaru owners. I have just recently bought myself a bug eye Subaru impreza wrx prodrive. I'm very happy with the performance of the car, but have noticed that the intercooler is a bit worn out and could do with replacing. I'm thinking about upgrading it with sti intercooler, will I need to do anything to the car, or is it a straight swap?
I found one other post with the same sort of question, but it wasn't the remapped prodrive version, I just want to make sure that it won't cause any problems before I go ahead.

Thanks for the reply so I need STI intercooler brackets and a STI undertray scoop, will that fit on the standard WRX scoop or will I need to buy a STI scoop aswell? Also will it give me any gain's in terms of performance, why I ask is the difference between a standard intercooler and STI counter part is about £150 approx, and I would like to weigh up my option's before I make a decision.

I don't think the STi intercooler undertray fins will fit under the WRX scoop? What I do know is its essential to get the undertray and the seal that creates over the STi intercooler.
