Mishimoto 15+ Subaru WRX Front-Mount Intercooler Kit - Black Core

If you're looking to get the most out of your 2015-2021 Subaru WRX, especially if you're pushing more boost or planning track days, a larger front-mount intercooler is a key upgrade. This Mishimoto kit is designed to handle the demands of increased airflow and heat, helping your turbocharger perform at its best without unnecessary strain.

The heart of this kit is a substantial 28-inch intercooler core, built to offer maximum cooling capacity. Mishimoto's engineers used CFD testing to smooth out the airflow through the cast end tanks, avoiding the turbulence that can occur with cut-and-weld designs. This means more efficient cooling and less restriction on your turbo. The piping is also carefully designed: the hot-side pipes are 2.25 inches to maintain airflow velocity for quick response, and they connect to the turbo with a CNC-machined flange for a solid, leak-free seal. The cold-side pipes expand from 2.5 to 2.75 inches to match your throttle body, ensuring maximum airflow into the engine.

Installation is made straightforward with an application-specific crash bar that bolts to existing points on your WRX, meaning no cutting or drilling into your bumper is required. The kit comes complete with all the necessary mounting brackets, couplers, and clamps for a clean setup, and it even includes a new bracket for your air intake. This intercooler is designed to work well with the Mishimoto Performance Air Intake, further enhancing its cooling capabilities.
