Cobb 2022+ Subaru WRX FMIC Core & Bumper Beam - Black

This is the COBB Front Mount Intercooler (FMIC) Core and Bumper Beam assembly specifically for the 2022 and newer Subaru WRX. If you're looking to improve your WRX's performance, especially after making other modifications like a tune or downpipe, a larger intercooler is a key component. It helps keep intake air temperatures down, which allows the engine to make more consistent power and reduces the risk of heat soak, particularly during spirited driving or track use.

This kit replaces the factory intercooler and bumper beam with a much larger, more efficient core. The COBB FMIC core is designed with dense fin spacing to maximize surface area for heat dissipation, while the internal bar-and-plate construction offers a robust path for airflow. The included bumper beam is a direct replacement for the stock unit, ensuring proper fitment and maintaining structural integrity. The black finish on both the core and beam gives a clean, stealthy look behind the grille. Installing a larger intercooler is a common step for WRX owners pushing their cars beyond stock performance levels, as it directly addresses a major restriction in the factory cooling system.

When installing this FMIC, you'll want to ensure you have all the necessary plumbing and mounting hardware. While this kit includes the core and bumper beam, other components like silicone hoses and clamps might be needed depending on your specific setup. Refer to the COBB installation instructions for a complete list of requirements and procedures. This part is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
