I don't know why Subaru stopped putting the logo on the intercooler, It looks cool and adds to the whole performance spirit of the car, sets the car apart from the regular WRX and is awesome when ur standing at an angle where you can catch a glimpse of the logo through the hood scoop.....that looks BAD A$$

I did the same thing on my '08. I am a little jealous, though. Yours is bigger than mine.

For those of you that want to take aftermarket logos off your tmic, use the aircraft grade paint stripper stuff they have at auto parts stores pike kragen. I stripped the esx logo off my tmic very easily for that oem look. I'm in the process of sanding it so that it can hide in he engine bay.

i doubt it because i dont see it clogging up in between the fins and only a thin layer of paint covers the outside.
