SubySleeper Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 i've been looking at this intercooler a lot, to put it simple, it's badass. it's the largest top-mount intercooler made for the ej20, although it's made for the wrx.. do you guys think it will fit under the hood, or would it be so big that the firewall wouldn't let it fit. by the way it's going into a 93 http://www.aps-wrx.com/wrx/my01/tmic.htm http://www.aps-wrx.com/wrx/my01/y_duct/yduct.htm thanks for any help you guys can provide kyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBE555 Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 What model engine is it going to be used with and what manifold? I've heard they're very tight in WRX's with the AC lines on the back side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evolutionmovement Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 The standard WRX IC is a very tight fit to a Legacy turbo. The A/C lines will have to be moved and it still may touch the firewall. There's nothing direct bolt in so you have to get creative. I'd see what it measures and see if you have that clearance behind the TB.

leondal Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 I'd say buy the WRX intercooler and mill it down to fit. You can get them for $100 or less, and they're eveywhere, and its pretty damn big. It'll hardly fit under my hood, as it's made for the turbo intake manifold, but you can do it. My other recommendation is get one of those black black WRX intercoolers from a '96 or '97 WRX. They're make to fit the NA manifold better. I can't even imagine using anything bigger than that WRX intercooler though. It's getting tight under my hood....
