I have recently fitted a VF28 turbo to my 99 wagon and thought I would look to change the intercooler next, I would prefer to keep the top mount option and I know I should really be looking for a STI model, however is it worth changing for a standard 02 intercooler?

 

Well, i thought it was a good enough upgrade to do it, if you wanna see it in the flesh, we're having a dorset meet at the Fox and Hounds just off the Canford bottom roundabout on the A31 Wimborne bypass......

The hardest part was getting the dumpvavlve pipework sorted..... you could use a vta, or just go and buy the pipe from Subaru.. but i didn't wanna do that

 

Well its bigger and cools better, better core over standard, let you work the rest out

Hi mate,

Have you noticed much difference with the VF28 fitted and did you have anything else done as a pre-req?

If it is different, in what way?

Thanks.

 

Sorry for the late reply, been away for the weekend, fitting the VF28 has made a massize difference, with just a piper cross air filter, wide neck down pipe, std center and straight through back box I had it up at powerstation near Gloscester for re-map and left with 307.8 BHP!!!!

 

When's the meet?
