It depends on what mods you have. STI intercooler is a nice piece and isnt restrictive unless your making ALOT of power.

also i wanted to ask... there is a squeaky sound coming from the intercooler everytime i hit a bump or shift gears. can this be ac tube hitting the intercooler? if so is there anyway i can prevent that from happening? need help please.
