GrimmSpeed Top Mount Intercooler Kit (08-14 WRX)

Meticulous Engineering Meets Unparalleled Craftsmanship.

You probably already know that you want an intercooler with maximum cooling and minimum restriction, but when it comes to selecting the right ‘man for the job’, we think it’s important to understand why. As air is pressurized by your turbo, it heats up, not because of the heat of the turbocharger, but because when they’re compressed, the atoms in the air are forced closer together and as a result, move faster and have more energy. That energy manifests itself as heat. The more heat we can remove from the system, the denser the air becomes and that’s what helps eliminate pre-detonation, or ‘knock’, allowing for increased output from your system. Your OEM TMIC does just fine at stock boost under normal use, but as soon as you start putting some real heat into it with higher boost or harder use, it heat-soaks beyond recovery.

Quick Specs

  • 17.5in x 8.7in x 3.5in Cross Flow Core - careful balance of high heat transfer and low pressure drop
  • Cast Aluminum End Tanks - machined BPV flange for precision fit and perfect seal
  • 5-Ply Silicone Couplers - custom molded and reinforced for demanding environments
  • Wide-Mouth Splitter - collects air from the entire width of the scoop
  • Vibration Isolation Mounting - protect the intercooler system from fatigue due to vibration
  • Stainless Steel BPV Studs - avoid the risk of damaging fragile aluminum threads

GrimmSpeed was founded in 2006 to provide customers with innovative and highly engineered aftermarket products. On a more personal level, we are a group car enthusiasts who are working our passions in the lovely city of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Our bread and butter started out anything Subaru. However, after growing our team and engineering expertise, we started developing products for Mitsubishi, Ford, MazdaSpeed, and Hyundai markets. We are a true garage start-up (single stall townhouse garage in Maplewood, Minnesota) and we've been lucky enough over the years to be able to turn it into exactly the business we had dreamed....actually, much more. We have a wide breadth of product offerings including; intercoolers, exhausts, intakes, gaskets, engine pulleys, phenolic spacers, boost controllers, and many more.
