My 2005 STi came with a WRX intercooler... looking to put the factory one back in. Located in Fremont.

I have never heard of an sti with a downgraded intercooler.. hmm. Perhaps your intercooler is from a GR sti, which have unmarked but still larger units?

Its a real STi. I checked the VIN. I have a feeling this car was more heavily modded in the past... the turbo heat shield is missing, this WRX intercooler, and now a blown head gasket haha... Im guessing sometime in the past, someone threw it back together to sell it..
