GrimmSpeed 2008-2014 STI Front Mount Intercooler Kit

The GrimmSpeed 2008-2014 STI Front Mount Intercooler Kit is engineered to elevate the performance of your turbocharged Subaru engine through superior cooling efficiency. With a focus on optimizing both pressure drop and heat rejection, this intercooler kit represents the pinnacle of intercooler design.

Core Design

At the heart of the GrimmSpeed intercooler is a 27"x11"x4" cross-flow core, constructed from durable bar and plate materials. This design strikes an ideal balance between minimizing pressure drop and maximizing heat rejection, ensuring your engine stays cool even under demanding conditions. The custom core design leverages over a decade of experience in intercooler production, resulting in a product that is both efficient and reliable.

End Tanks and Mounting

The cast aluminum end tanks are meticulously designed for equal flow distribution and minimal pressure drop, enhancing overall performance. The robust steel mounting brackets provide a secure fit, preventing movement during aggressive driving. Notably, this kit does not require permanent chassis modifications, although light bumper cutting is necessary to accommodate the larger core. A fog light delete is required for 2008-2010 style bumpers.

Piping and Couplers

The accompanying piping kit is made from thick .090" wall, 2.5" diameter 6061 aluminum, featuring CNC mandrel bends for optimal flow. Each pipe is bead rolled at the ends to ensure a tight fit with the included 5-ply silicone couplers, effectively preventing blow-offs under high boost conditions. The piping is finished in a durable red or black wrinkle powder coat, providing both protection against corrosion and a visually appealing match to other GrimmSpeed components.
