PERRIN 08-14 Subaru WRX/STI Front Mount Intercooler Core + Mounting Beam - Black Core

This Perrin front mount intercooler kit for your 2008-2014 Subaru Impreza WRX/STI comes with the intercooler core itself and a specially designed mounting beam. The intercooler's job is to cool the air coming from your turbocharger before it enters the engine. Cooler air is denser, meaning more oxygen can be packed into the cylinders, which helps your engine make more power and run more efficiently, especially under boost.

Perrin built this intercooler core with a bar-and-plate design, which is a well-known and effective way to dissipate heat. The core is finished in black, which can help it blend in behind the grille for a more subtle look. The included mounting beam is specific to the Impreza chassis, ensuring it fits right and provides a solid foundation for the intercooler. This setup is designed to handle the increased heat load that comes with a modified turbo system, helping to prevent heat soak and maintain consistent performance.

When installing this front mount intercooler, you'll be removing the factory intercooler and likely modifying or relocating some components to make space. The mounting beam simplifies the process by providing a direct attachment point. It's important to note that this intercooler is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for detailed steps and any additional hardware or modifications that may be required for your specific setup.
