Default Introducing the Treadstone Performance Massive Front Mount Intercooler Kit!




Please note: The pictures above show the optional cold air intake kit which can be purchased in addition to the intercooler system for just $349.99.

Treadstone Performance Front Mount Intercooler Kit

The bomb has landed and the news is out, we have blown the competition away with this one. Our latest release to the Treadstone line up is our massive front mount intercooler kit available for the WRX STi. We have raised the bar in front mount intercoolers for your WRX with a massive 4.5" deep core, 28" long and 10.5" high making this the new benchmark intercooler! Capable of flowing 938cfm at 1.5psi pressure loss, this unit is efficient up to 900hp without breaking a sweet! With many of our private label intercoolers already on the market today, this unit is tried and tested on the track and the strip by many of the top names in Subaru tuning. Forget about heat soak with this monster, you can run on the track all day with out ever worrying of losing horse power to heat soak. This unit has been tested to 95% efficiency!

Incorporated into the design is a front frame brace which takes place of the bumper support and maintains front structural integrity of your vehicle. Our intercooler core uses top quality pure aluminum alloy making our intercooler lighter than the competition even with a larger overall size!

Why Treadstone?

The Treadstone name has become synonymous with quality intercoolers over the past few years, and we pride our selves on it! We manufacture our bar and plate cores with strict guidelines, and are specifically designed to maximize cooling using the most surface area possible in any given space. Our cores give the perfect balance between heat exchanging efficiency and flow. Our internal fin structure design is top notch, and is where the most important changes can be made to enhance the cooling rate. Treadstone intercooler cores feature a high heat-dissipating "Inner fin" design. This is ideal for medium to high boost levels on higher horsepower or upgraded turbo engines. The larger internal surface area provides superior cooling efficiency for radiating excessive heat and minimizing heat soak. In general, these design characteristics is what gives Treadstone Intercoolers the leading edge in intercooler technology.

soo is a stock snail not counterclockwise flow???

if it was on a stock setup it would have an even worse bend seeing how a stock turbo shoots to the driver.

Considering the typical efficiency of the rear half of a thick core like that, 95% efficiency seems more like a theoretical peak than something owners should expect (or even close to it).

Not to mention that when choosing a vendor to purchase from, I always look for descriptive grammar such as "we have blew the competition away" and "run on the track all day with out ever worrying of loosing horse power" and "these design characteristics is what gives" just to name a few gems.

I felt like I was reading a 5th graders literary piece, not a vendors promotional description which I am supposed to take seriously, and consider purchasing from.

Yeah unfortunately that's about the only way to get the routing to the right spot. I believe it is only a 90 degree bend though so it shouldn't hinder performance much if at all.

Are you asking if that is a stock turbocharger? If so, no that is a Turbonetics turbocharger.

Yeah I suppose I should have proof read it before copy/pasting from their website lol. The only point I would like to make there is that in my experience the people that are the best at making power are not typically the best when it comes to grammar and spelling lol.

Yeah the CAI isn't the cheapest in this kit unfortunately, and powder coating the piping adds some cost, but the kit itself is about $200 less than the APS DR725 which I feel is the most similar in regards to size and performance.
