Overview
The Process West Verti-Cooler Kit for the Subaru WRX (2015–2021 VA) is a high-performance, slant-mounted intercooler system engineered to dramatically improve charge air cooling. Designed to address airflow inefficiencies found in traditional top-mount setups, the Verti-Cooler provides consistent performance and lower intake temperatures under demanding street or track conditions.
Why Verti-Cooler?
Unlike factory intercoolers that suffer from heat soak and poor airflow exit paths, the Verti-Cooler mounts at a 15° near-vertical angle. This design forces cool air directly through the core and allows heated air to exit cleanly through the transmission tunnel, improving efficiency and engine durability.
Using a massive bar and plate core (400mm x 205mm x 120mm), this is the largest aftermarket intercooler available for the VA WRX. It comes complete with a dedicated under-hood duct/splitter that ensures even ambient airflow across the entire core surface.
Kit Contents
The Verti-Cooler kit includes everything required for installation:
- Verti-Cooler core (Black finish)
- Mandrel-bent aluminium piping
- Silicone hoses and clamps
- Laser-cut mounting brackets
- Under-hood air duct/splitter
Performance Gains
Track and dyno testing show substantial reductions in intake temperatures and improved power delivery compared to the stock intercooler. The Verti-Cooler system supports more aggressive tuning and better heat management, making it ideal for performance builds.
