Fitment Information: This charge pipe kit fits 2022 - 2025 Subaru WRX, 2019 - 2024 Subaru Ascent, and 2020 - 2024 Subaru Outback XT. Features: Swap out the factory charge pipe on your turbocharged FA24 - powered Subaru with the COBB Charge Pipe. It boosts airflow, stops long - term failures, and keeps a cool, low - key look under the hood. Factory plastic parts can limit airflow when you up the power on turbo vehicles. Also, they're prone to failure as heat cycles wear them down. The COBB Charge Pipe is made of 6061 aluminum tubing. It goes from 2.5 inches at the bottom to 2.75 inches at the intercooler connection. This smooth transition increases flow and gives room for larger aftermarket radiators. A wrinkle black powder - coated finish gives it an upgraded yet subtle look under the hood. The integrated billet turbo adapter uses a machined and anodized clip with ball detent to attach the charge pipe to the turbocharger housing. A 5 - ply silicone coupler at the other end makes installation easy and leak - free. Key Features: CNC Radiused 6061 Aluminum Tubing, Wrinkle Black Powder Coat Finish, Integrated Machined 2.5 - inch to 2.75 - inch Transition, Bespoke Machined Retaining Clip, Compatible with Stock Calibration and COBB OTS Maps, Comes with an Installation Guide. Tuning isn't needed to install this part safely. But using it with COBB's Stage 2 Power Package and OTS Calibration will get the most out of it.
Using the COBB Charge Pipe Kit is simple. First, follow the included installation guide step - by - step. It will walk you through removing the factory charge pipe and installing the new one. The 5 - ply silicone coupler and the machined clip make the installation process straightforward and ensure a leak - free connection. Note that while tuning is not required for a safe installation, if you want to get the best performance out of this charge pipe, consider using it with COBB's Stage 2 Power Package and OTS Calibration. For maintenance, periodically check the connections to make sure they're tight. The wrinkle black powder - coated finish helps protect the pipe from corrosion, but if you notice any signs of damage, like scratches or dents, address them promptly to prevent further issues. Keep the pipe clean from dirt and debris, and it'll serve you well for a long time.
