i took off the sperator, and the two bars that support the back seat, i put the box up to the back of it and drilled holes in the box and zip tied it to the bars. i had problems with it before such as rolling around and flipping. thats how it got scratched

Sure looks like a wrx intercooler to me, you might want to check into that more seriously.

For reference

[fractur3]

my friend has a wrx and his intercooler is way smaller...

[scubadiver424]

are you running any engine management? I would say get an AP and a protune when you can

[fractur3]

it just got a protune and they just remapped the stock ecu.. i had a turbo xs but it was so messed up.. im thinking about getting a cobb ap though

Does your friend have an '06+ wrx?
It could possibly be a JDM wrx intercooler as every after market intercooler does not have the flap things that are folded over on the sides.

Keep up the nice work.
