Standard intercooler upgrade?
Right then, are there any standard intercoolers on the higher BHP models
that I can replace the very small Turbo 2000 intercooler with.
The car is a 1999 Turbo 2000.
Such as the STiI intercooler, are they any bigger, any advantages to this
or am I just better off going the FMIC way?
Also is it possible to get this car remapped with the standard ECU??
Cheers

I believe the newage WRX intercooler is a good cost effective upgrade.

Standard ECU can be mapped.
What turbo are you planning on running and what are your power goals?

At this moment in time i'm not looking to change the turbo ect...
Just some simply mods that would help the remap ect...

The newage sti7/8/9 intercooler will fit and is a great upgrade!
You'll need a remap after thought as its loads bigger than the standard one you have
