JDM v7 STI IC for USDM STI IC

Gone! Thanks to all for the offers. Looks great Pete.


San Jose area...

Looking to trade a good condition JDM v7 IC for a USDM IC.

The JDM is worth a good bit more so I'm looking for a cherry condition USDM to trade straight up for it. Possible to work something out for a more bent up USDM but might not be straight up trade.

Thanks

I'm running the JDM STi TMIC on my Superzilla 49 Turbo with 309awhp. This top mount FLOWS.

Ask Ed from EQ Tuning.

JDM top mount is sweet. But be careful about the A/C lines rubbing.

Thanks Matt for trading. The intercooler barely fit my car. I can see my AC hard line eventually running through.

Insulation and maybe some cut rubber zip-tied. You should be fine. Shoot some pics.

Congrads on the swap looks great. Was it a PITA to install? I've always wondered about the fitment between having the USDM STI TMIC and the JDM one.

The JDM one was definitely much harder to install than the USDM one. I ended up trimming a little bit off the TMIC to TB connector hose. I think the problem is the AC line. The JDM intercooler is taller than the USDM one so that after I get the elbow onto the turbo outlet, I can't push the intercooler back against the firewall to get the connecter on cuz the AC hardline is in the way. I think if I had the STI hardline then it probably would have went in alot easier...Still thinking that AC hardline is eventually gonna rub through so sooner or later I'll be getting the STI hardline
