Front Mount Intercooler w/ Boost Tube Piping Kit

The Perrin Front Mount Intercooler (FMIC) with Boost Tube Piping Kit is a comprehensive upgrade designed specifically for 2002-2007 Subaru WRX and 2004-2007 WRX STI models. This kit replaces the factory top-mount intercooler with a larger, more efficient front-mount core and includes mandrel-bent aluminum piping to optimize boost delivery. It is ideal for enthusiasts seeking to reduce intake air temperatures, eliminate heat soak, and support higher boost levels for both street and track applications. Engineered with precision and durability, the Perrin FMIC features a massive 28" x 9.25" x 3.5" core that is pressure tested to 50 PSI to ensure reliability under demanding conditions. The boost tubes are mandrel-bent to maintain smooth airflow and reduce turbulence, maximizing turbo system efficiency. The intercooler support beam is constructed from boxed steel and powder-coated black for strength and corrosion resistance. This front mount intercooler kit delivers tangible benefits including cooler, denser air for improved combustion, which translates to increased power output and more consistent performance. The direct-fit design and included hardware make installation straightforward, and the kit supports high horsepower builds without requiring additional tuning, making it a practical upgrade for WRX and STI enthusiasts looking to enhance their vehicle’s performance and reliability. Installation is moderately involved and may require basic hand tools and mechanical experience; professional installation is recommended for those unfamiliar with intercooler or turbo system work. No tuning is required after installation, making it accessible for street and track builds alike. Verify compatibility with your specific year and trim to ensure proper fitment.
