Cobb 04-07 Subaru WRX / STI Front Mount Intercooler Core - Black

The Cobb Front Mount Intercooler Core in black upgrades 2004-2007 Subaru Impreza WRX and STI models by replacing stock intercooling with a larger, more efficient unit. This bar-and-plate core lowers intake air temperatures for consistent power delivery under boost. It integrates directly with Cobb FMIC kits for seamless installation and reliable performance.

Key Features

  • Bar-and-Plate Core Design: 24" x 12" x 3.5" dimensions provide high airflow and heat dissipation for reduced charge temps by up to 50°F over stock.
  • Cast Aluminum End Tanks: Precision-machined for optimal flow distribution and durability under high-pressure turbo setups.
  • Black Powdercoat Finish: Corrosion-resistant coating withstands road conditions and heat cycles for long-term appearance and function.
  • High-Capacity Cooling: Supports 500+ wheel horsepower levels while maintaining efficiency in street and track use.
  • Direct Bolt-On Compatibility: Engineered to match Cobb FMIC piping and brackets for 04-07 WRX/STI chassis.

Product Notes

  • Core assembly only; requires compatible Cobb FMIC kit or custom piping for full assembly.
  • Clean core regularly with approved intercooler spray to maintain peak efficiency.

Installation Notes

  • Professional installation recommended.
  • Remove stock intercooler and bumper cover for access; torque fittings to 20 ft-lbs.
  • Uses stock mounting hardware no modifications needed for Cobb FMIC setups.
