The Mishimoto direct-fit top-mount intercooler is engineered specifically for the Subaru WRX from 2008 to 2014.
The stock top-mount intercooler is prone to head soak and can fail above 18psi due to the stock plastic end tanks.
Mishimoto engineers spent months designing and testing this intercooler for optimum performance on both the street and track.
This intercooler utilizes a highly efficient, dense bar-and-plate core with durable cast aluminum end tanks that are TIG-welded.
The Mishimoto intercooler features a 3.75" thick core and a total volume of 584 in3.
Thanks to this volume and a dense offset fin pitch, heat transfer is optimized, supporting vehicles from stock up to 400 whp.
This intercooler underwent rigorous testing, showing a 12°F temperature drop and a +6 whp and +8 wtq increase for the stock test vehicle.
Installation is simple and requires no modification to any engine bay parts, completing in under 30 minutes.
Included with this intercooler are a new turbo-intercooler O-ring gasket and Mishimoto's silicone throttle-body coupler.
These components negate the need to gather supplies for installation and ensure years of reliable service.
This intercooler is available in a durable powder-coated finish of Stealth Black or Sleek Silver and includes the Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty.
