Front Mount Intercooler Kit w/ Red Charge Pipes

The GrimmSpeed Front Mount Intercooler Kit is designed to significantly improve charge air cooling efficiency for the 2015-2021 Subaru WRX. By relocating the intercooler from the heat-saturated engine bay to the front of the radiator, this kit ensures the core has access to the coolest and most abundant airflow. This strategy is crucial for builds targeting substantial power gains, as it helps maintain consistent charge air temperatures, leading to more predictable boost levels, sharper throttle response, and sustained power output, especially during back-to-back runs. This complete engineered system includes a silver-coated aluminum bar-and-plate core measuring 27.00" wide, 11.00" high, and 4.00" deep. It is paired with red powder-coated aluminum charge pipes for a distinct visual appeal. The kit is specifically designed and validated for the 2015-2021 Subaru WRX chassis, ensuring proper fitment and integration. Installation involves routing the charge piping through the engine bay to the front-mounted core. The kit comes with everything needed for installation, including the FMIC core, a full charge pipe kit, couplers, clamps, and all necessary mounting hardware. GrimmSpeed, based in Portland, Oregon, has been developing performance parts for Subaru platforms since 2003, focusing on real-world usability and platform-specific knowledge. It is important to note that if you are running the stock 2-port boost controller, there may be significant fitment issues on the turbo charge pipe flange. This kit is specifically designed for the FA20DIT engine in the 2015-2021 Subaru WRX.
