Perrin black topmount

This Perrin top mount looks sick.

Russell,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a 5-Star Review! The Perrin Black Top Mount Intercooler is a sleek and functional upgrade—glad you love the look!

Regards,

Easy Install

The install was simple. Hardest part was getting throttle coupler lined up so, but if twisting that is the hardest part of installing parts I’ll take it all day lol the black looks dope and already noticed slight increase in power. If you have a strut bar I would try put that back on first and see how it fits because the Perrin one for sure does not fit back on after you have installed this.

Matt,

The Perrin Top Mount Intercooler does have a great look and performance boost! It’s good to hear that the installation was straightforward for you, even with the throttle coupler being a bit finicky. As for the strut bar, it's a common issue with aftermarket intercoolers—sometimes a different or adjustable strut bar might be needed if you want to keep that setup. If you run into any other questions or need advice on fitting parts around it, just let the Subimods Team know! Thank you for your 5 Star Review!

Regards,

I like it

Excellent top mount

Another high quality piece from Perrin. I painted it to suit my build, but it’s incredible to compare it to the build quality of the stock piece. I would definitely recommend it.

The solid state construction and welds all pass visual inspection using Nuclear Quality Assurance weld inspection processes for low pressure rated tanks. This is my professional opinion as a certified inspector of such items. This increased physical capacity will allow for improved thermodynamics.

Adam,

We appreciate your 5 Star Review of the Perrin Top Mount Intercooler for your Subaru WRX. It is great to hear that you found it to be a high-quality product, especially in terms of construction and weld quality. Your insight adds an extra layer of credibility to the product's performance and build. Enjoy the improved thermodynamics and performance with your new intercooler!

Black Perrin Top Mount Inter Cooler

I just turned 69 Y/O and this was a bit of a task for a old timer, but I got through it. This fit well but I had to swap the coupler to get everything to line up. Had to drill to open up few things to get the holes for the supplied bolts and washers to line up. Other than that a good product.

Paul,

Thank you for your 5 Star Review! We are glad to hear the Perrin Top Mount Intercooler fit your WRX well. It is awesome that you got through the install—especially at 69! We appreciate your detailed feedback and hope you continue enjoying the upgrade.
