I installed this on a '07 STI with a grimmspeed TMIC. Install was fast and simple, but a tight fit. It works pretty good.
Fits well on the 04 wrx with a large topmont. i did have to unbolt the ac line but its ok for me cause i dont have ac any way. Keeps the front nice and stiff
Rather difficult to install. Instructions incomplete and incorrect for 2006 USDM model. Required fabricating parts to relocate AC and brake line(s) from provided hardware along w/considerable and VERY careful bending of referenced lines. Additionally, had to dremel off short sections of plastic edge at rear of engine bay to get tower brackets to go into place as required to mount these. Once installed, bar functioned as expected, providing noted improvement in handling of vehicle - stiffer w/less body roll/sway. Wonder if wrong part sent even tho' marked for 2006 fitment. This part would have received 2 stars or less if it had not improved handling as it did, along w/fact that it is very well made. Had fitment not been such an issue, would have received 4 stars (5 stars considered perfect and nothing is perfect).
bolted right on only problem was wrestling it to get the bolt holding the bracket to the bar under the plastic edge to the engine bay. Have noticed a slight gain to stability when taking turns.

A: It depends on whose AOS you are using, unfortunately the site is not letting me open the photo you've attached. Please contact our customer service team for further info on fitment. That said, it will not interfere with the majority of aftermarket AOS setups.

A: This tower bar will work with a 2004-2007 STI intercooler so as long as they are the same dimensions it shouldn't be a problem

A: You say WRX, so not a STRAIGHT comparison, as i have a 2006 STi, but YES, i did the upgrade to a GR STi intercooler (same size as VA), and this WL Strut tower bar fit. Of course, my 2006 i had to move the A/C lines a bit and lots of elbow grease to make it fit in. Tight fit for the 2006 STi, but yes, it definitely fit, even with the larger late model GR/VA STi OEM intercooler

A: Victor, We do not test our strut tower braces with Intercoolers larger than factory original so I cannot confirm your fitment question. Sorry.

A: We can not guarantee fitment with the PW intercooler because it is so much larger. Based off of what I have seen, it should work, we just can't guarantee it.
