I believe the impreza L is naturally aspirated so unless you're planning on bolting on a turbo on and upgrading some of your engine internals an intercooler won't do you any good. If you want more power from a naturally aspirated engine I'd recommend upgrading your exhaust possibly an underdrive pulley set. If you want more info on this stuff or other mods for your car look around the non-turbo powerplant forum.

yeah im thinking of putting a turbo on it, hopefully within the next few months. but until then, now i know what an intercooler is used for so that would b totally pointless. thanx
