I want to uprate my early slanty intercooler and so far have the option of this:

This costs £200......but comes from china......not sure if it will be good, but surely better than the standard one??

Then I saw this:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SUBARU-IMPREZA...QQcmdZViewItem

And this is absolutely perfect.....however, its for the newage cars and will not fit mine without me moving the clutch resovoir? according the the seller...

So, who makes other alternatives???
Would putting a later STi 4/5/6 intercooler on just do the same thing? Are they simple to fit also???

I suppose this should also be in general tech....I'll post it there too.
Cheers

then i saw the light



get a front mount bud

Fantom

I would get a front mount, but it is gonna be a big job and I dont really want to run BIG power in the future. I'm on about 270bhp now and I'd be happy to reach the 300 mark. Should be able to do that fairly easy and retain a top mount surely.....
I love the first i/c you had...looks very nice, but I think it cost you a lot didn't it?? £600??

i had the hyperflow for about 5 weeks , paid £700 for it and sold it for half that . . cheapest fmic is better than the dearest tmic everytime
and,according to pavlo,even though mine is cheap it has got good pipes,which i was worried about,shame about the hoses and jubilee clips which are easily replaceable and will be soon

RON

My yr2000 uk car, fitted with newage WRX intercooler..... along with a Scobyworld strut brace which does NOT knock.... a few other mods aswell, although i've tried to keep them discrete!!

theotherphil

Got it from JW Racing for about £550ish. Had to speak to Jaime personally as it wasn't on the website. It's for the early model (<96) and is fitted to my UK turbo.

Cliff it would be an interesting exercise to do a cost exercise between a front mount and a top mount

v5 man

That APS one is nearly £600!!! May as well go front mount then
