Using your COBB Top Mount Intercooler Kit is straightforward. First, follow the included installation guides for the charge pipe and top mount intercooler. Make sure to use the heavy - duty replacement mounting bracket on the passenger side to handle the added weight of the intercooler core. The bushing helps reduce vibrations, so don't forget to install it properly. When connecting the reinforced black silicone couplers, ensure they are tightly fitted to maximize airflow.
Here are some important things to note. This kit is specifically designed for 2015 - 2021 Subaru WRX models, so don't try to use it on other vehicles. During installation, take your time as it requires intermediate effort. If you're not confident, it's a good idea to have a professional help you.
For maintenance, regularly check the silicone couplers for any signs of wear or damage. Inspect the powder - coat finish on the core and the thrust tunnel. If there are any chips or scratches, touch them up to prevent rust. Keep the intercooler clean by gently washing it with water and mild soap every few months. This will help it perform at its best and last a long time.
