Overview
The COBB Front Mount Intercooler Kit is designed to replace the factory intercooler on 2015 and newer Subaru WRX STI models. This upgrade is intended for enthusiasts seeking improved cooling efficiency and enhanced performance support for their turbocharged engine. By removing the overworked stock intercooler, this kit helps reduce intake air temperatures, which can contribute to more consistent power delivery and engine reliability during spirited driving or track use.

The kit is ideal for drivers who want to maintain a clean and professional appearance while upgrading their vehicle’s cooling system.
Key Features
This front mount intercooler kit offers a range of benefits through its thoughtful design and quality materials:
- Massive 24" x 11" x 4" bar and plate intercooler core for enhanced heat dissipation
- Black heat-dissipating coating on the core to improve cooling efficiency and durability
- Mandrel bent 2.5" aluminum piping finished in wrinkle black powder coat for a clean, durable engine bay appearance
- Includes a bypass valve (BPV) adapter plate compatible with the factory bypass valve, COBB XLE BPV, or other compatible valves
- Designed specifically for 2015-2021 Subaru WRX STI models to ensure proper fitment and function
Construction & Design
The intercooler core utilizes a bar and plate design, known for its robust construction and efficient heat exchange capabilities. The black coating applied to the core serves a dual purpose: it enhances heat dissipation and provides corrosion resistance to extend the life of the component. The mandrel bent aluminum piping ensures smooth airflow with minimal restrictions, while the wrinkle black powder coat finish protects against wear and complements the overall aesthetic of the engine bay.
Installation & Fitment
This kit is engineered for direct fitment on 2015-2021 Subaru WRX STI models. Installation involves removing the factory intercooler and piping, then bolting in the COBB components with included hardware. The BPV adapter plate allows seamless integration of various bypass valves without additional modifications. Fitment should be verified against your vehicle’s specifications and the part number SUBFMIC001BK to ensure compatibility.
