Description
The HKS Intercooler Kit provides an application-specific charge-air cooling component. Application: 2008+ Subaru WRX STI.

An intercooler transfers heat from compressed intake air to the surrounding cooling air. Core dimensions, end-tank layout and airflow through the bumper all influence its operation; a larger core dimension alone is not a guaranteed horsepower gain.
