OEM Oil pickups are a known weak point in EJ25 Subaru engines, especially in high-performance or aggressively driven applications. The factory oil pickup is prone to cracking, which can lead to sudden oil pressure loss and catastrophic engine failure. The IAG Performance Oil Pickup is engineered to eliminate this risk, providing a reliable and durable solution for 2002–2014 WRX, 2004–2021 STI, 2005–2009 Legacy GT, and 2004–2013 Forester XT models.
The IAG Version 2 Oil Pickup is a substantial upgrade over the OEM EJ25 design. Constructed from stainless steel tubing that is twice as thick as the factory pickup, it dramatically increases strength and resistance to fatigue. This reinforced construction is designed to withstand the heat, vibration, and stress associated with high-RPM and high-load driving conditions.
For added reliability, the pickup features a precision-machined 3/8" stainless steel flange that seals to the engine block using a Viton O-ring, ensuring a secure, leak-free connection. A reinforced stainless steel mounting bracket utilizes a two-point mounting system—an improvement over the OEM single-point design—to further reduce stress and vibration that can lead to cracking. The formed pickup head incorporates an OEM-style mesh screen to maintain proper oil filtration and flow.
By addressing every known failure point of the factory oil pickup, the IAG V2 Oil Pickup provides long-term durability and peace of mind. Whether your Subaru is a daily driver, track car, or high-horsepower build, this upgrade helps ensure consistent oil pressure and reliable engine protection under even the most demanding conditions.
