{"product_id":"overtake-top-mount-intercooler","title":"Overtake Top Mount Intercooler","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe factory Subaru top-mount intercooler on the 02-07 WRX and 04-21 STI was built to a stock power target. The tube-and-fin core is easy to damage on the road and undersized for what these cars actually run when driven hard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe OVERTAKE Top Mount Intercooler replaces it with a substantially larger all-aluminium bar-and-plate core, cast aluminium end tanks CNC machined and welded to a soldered and pressure-tested core, and inlet geometry designed to match the OEM Y-pipe flow path. This TMIC fits the stock location, stock Y-pipe, stock intake manifold, and stock bypass valve. No tune required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Upgrade to the OVERTAKE TMIC?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBar-and-plate construction, cast end tanks, and purpose-shaped inlet geometry hold up to the road better than the OEM tube-and-fin and give the TMIC more thermal capacity on back-to-back pulls:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCleaner Look Under the Hood\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBar-and-Plate Core Holds Up to External Debris\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore Thermal Capacity, Less Heat Soak\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFits OEM Y-Pipe, Intake, and BPV\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Results:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith all other factors the same, the OVERTAKE TMIC was able to maintain ~16°F lower peak intake air temperatures when compared to the factory intercooler.
