Description

COBB Tuning Black Front-Mount Intercooler Kit for VB Subaru WRX [746550-BK]

The COBB Front Mount Intercooler Kit for the Subaru WRX provides a substantial improvement in airflow and cooling efficiency compared to top-mounted intercoolers. COBB Tuning utilizes a vertical flow Garrett core measuring 24″ x 8″ x 3.5″, flowing from bottom to top. This core design enhances packaging within the vehicle and optimizes pipe routing. The end tanks are crafted from formed sheet aluminum and tapered to ensure even pressure distribution across the core, maximizing cooling performance. Each tank is equipped with a billet aluminum machined 2.5″ inlet / outlet, and the entire assembly is powder-coated in black.

Thrust Tunnels

COBB Tuning incorporates “Thrust Tunnels” on either end of the intercooler core for structural integrity and improved airflow. These tunnels channel air through the intercooler core and the rest of the vehicle’s cooling stack. The passenger side thrust tunnel includes mounts for the Ambient Temperature Sensor. Both tunnels are wrinkle black powder-coated for a clean, durable finish.

Included Support Beam

The kit includes a bumper support beam as the factory crash bar must be removed for installation. COBB Tuning constructs the support beam with 1/8″ steel plating and 1.5″ DOM tubing, finished in matte black powder coat. The beam integrates a tow hook mount on the passenger side in the factory location.

Mandrel Bent Tubing

The intercooler piping, designed by COBB Tuning, uses mandrel-bent 2″ and 2.5″ tubing with a wrinkle black powder-coated finish. The “hot” side features a machined clip for seamless compatibility with the factory-style turbocharger outlet. It begins at 2″ before expanding to 2.5″ as it reaches the core inlet. The outlet pipe remains 2.5″ through to the custom billet throttle body adapter. All piping is neatly tucked behind the passenger side bumper cover to minimize the flow path from the turbocharger to the throttle body.

Why?

COBB Tuning’s intercooler upgrade for the 2022-2024 Subaru WRX enhances airflow and reduces charge air temperatures, delivering more consistent and higher power output. The innovative design of COBB Tuning’s Front Mount Intercooler allows for exceptional cooling efficiency without compromising transient response due to excessive piping lengths found in other FMIC setups.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
