Upgrade your charge air cooling with the PERRIN Front Mount Intercooler Kit featuring the Standard Core, engineered for a perfect balance of performance, efficiency, and reliability. Designed to fit a wide range of Subaru WRX and STI models, this intercooler is ideal for daily drivers and moderately tuned builds looking for consistent power and reduced heat soak.
The standard core measures 28” long x 9.25” tall x 3.5” deep, delivering a total volume of 906.5 cubic inches. This carefully engineered size provides excellent cooling efficiency while maintaining low pressure drop, ensuring optimal airflow and turbo performance.
Constructed using a rugged 3/8” bar-and-plate design, the intercooler core is built to withstand road debris and harsh driving conditions. PERRIN maximizes performance by positioning the core to fully utilize the entire front bumper opening, ensuring maximum airflow passes directly through the intercooler for superior heat dissipation.
The precision-designed end tanks evenly distribute hot charge air across the core. By eliminating sharp 90° angles and incorporating smooth, gradual tapers, airflow turbulence is minimized—resulting in improved efficiency and consistent performance.
Every PERRIN intercooler is pressure tested to 50 PSI, ensuring leak-free operation and maintaining proper boost levels even under demanding conditions.
