Question Intercoolers Anyone?

I want a good bottom mount intercooler, the top is not good for the wrx as most of you guys know. i was thinking the greddy intercooler system, because it works well the greddy cold air intake and will set me up for a better turbo charger down the road if i choose to get one. in your opinions what its the best intercooler; price and performance wise?

as you might know using the search engine provided by this site, the top mount is more then ample for a stock turbo. But if you want a big shiney peice of metal and an hour of spool up time on an unmodded wrx, be my guest, they are all good pretty much. I like perrin and APS, I think the fittment on those is better.

No he means bottom mount. It's a new design that raps around the downpipe.

I prefer the new rear mount. It requires little rear bumper modification (ok maybe a gaping hole). The only downside is it only works while in reverse..
