Process West Top Mount Intercooler w/ JDM Shroud Kit Black

A common error that people can make when upgrading their intercooler is not installing a properly sized splitter. The benefit of a larger intercooler is that the large surface area can rapidly disperse heat. However when utilizing the stock splitter, the intercoolers effective surface area can be drastically reduced. 

Another mistake is completely eliminating the splitter which allows air to escape around the intercooler instead of going through the core. The lack of air flowing through the core will cause the intercooler to heat up, making the intake charge warmer potentially causing heat soak issues, and reducing power.

The Process West JDM Top Mount Intercooler Shroud Kit is available for US consumers to provide more air flow to your intercooler. With this intercooler shroud kit, more surface area coverage to the intercooler will be provided with forced air straight to the core of the intercooler which will lower charge temps which will result in increased power. 

The JDM Top Mount Intercooler Shroud is fabricated from high-grade steel, and features precisions welds, and has been powder-coated black to remain corrosion resistant. Weather stripping is installed on all 4 sides of the intercooler shroud to create a proper sealing surface between the shroud and the intercooler and keeps the high-pressure zone within the intercooler. 

This splitter is designed specifically for the Process West Top Mount Intercooler, however, this unit can work with other brands of intercoolers but we are not able to confirm fitment. 

NOTE: 04-05 Forester XT require a STI BOV and STI BOV recirculation hose for proper fitment
