    It is a great installation video and a great product as well. Highly recommend doing this who ever won a WRX/STI. I am gonna do it by myself. Just wanna add a note on this thing: 1) Intercooler mount bolt torque specs are 11.8ft-lb 2) Intercooler hose warm clamps torque specs are 2.2ft-lb 3) Bypass Valve torque specs are 11.8ft-lb 4) There is two coolant line that is pre constructed with the AOS. I asked them about the order which line goes where (Since one goes to the Expansion Tank, one goes to the turbo outlet). They told me it does not matter. You can attach them in any order you want

    Bout to do the install in a day or two. I have watched this video 3-4 times already, and will watch a few more times before doing the install. I have all tools ready to go, and am excited to get this on the car. My 2011 wrx had cylinder 4 compression issues, and I didn’t care for it as I should’ve, and definitely learned my lesson on what is needed for these cars to be healthy. I traded it in for a new 2020 STI that ive kept completely stock thus far. This video should be exactly what I need to understand the process more thoroughly. Thank you IAG, for providing this video. I understand most shops charge quite a bit for this so i decided to give it a go myself. I’ll let you guys know how it came out after I’ve finished the install. Next up after this is the cylinder 4 coolant mod, along with a Koyo aluminum radiator. Only then can I be comfortable doing performance upgrades down the road, as this is a daily driver that id like to keep healthy over its lifetime…

    Alright guys, I’m taking a break. I’m at the point of reinstalling the intercooler, but having some issues with fitment. Should be able to get it on with some patience. I struggled to get the yfitting on to the block where the oil returns from the aos, that took me the longest to get right. Hard to see down there and I couldn’t get my throttle body to move quite as far to the side as they showed in video. The other parts that took the longest we’re getting the clamps all set right. Some of the steps took me longer than I was hoping, and I had more coolant leak than I would’ve liked. I’m sure I’ll get some smoke on start up due to that. I’ll come back after I get some rest and get the IC reinstalled. I hope to have the car running by this afternoon. I’m hoping it’s all solid and there’s no leaks on start up. I’ll have to add some coolant but that’s fine and was planned for.

It’s not what you all want to hear, but I’m just gonna keep this car stock at this point.

    Just used this video for my 2016 Sti. The install was a little different but pretty easy. I struggled to get turbo hose from Intercooler back on no matter what tool I used to get it over the bottom . I found that if you slightly change the angle of the hose downward it slides perfectly into the turbo without any tools and fits way better. I wanted to comment this for anyone who might run into the same issue. The version 3 is absolutely worth the money.

If this is true, this video just sealed the deal. Thanks again.

    Use worm gear clamps where possible, particularly on the hose that drains coolant into the turbo feed. My provided clamp allowed it to leak. Also, if you are using a FMIC, just remove that bracket they tell you to feed the hose through the hole of. It is only used for supporting the TMIC. It will free up space and make getting the intercooler to turbo coupler on much easier.

Im telling you this because I did mine like this and it was perfect install. If I had someone tell me this before I wouldn't have taken 5 hours to install mine.

    GD install video is in the works! The main difference is where the vent hoses attach. The GD will need to run 2 of the vent hoses directly to the forward most valve cover ports instead of intersecting with the white PCV connectors. Removal of the airbox portion of your intake and battery may be needed to reach those ports.

    If there is enough length on the hoses, you should be able to connect directly to the block as long as you jumper the PCV diag connectors to suppress the CEL. I've not seen the older instructions, but I'm guessing that these new instructions are more EPA friendly since they keep the diag connectors intact. I'm going to perform the install this weekend on a 2017 STI and I'm considering going straight to the block.

I am just curious if the Blow By sensors are important to the operation of the engine since not all systems are 100% efficient and some blow by will still make its way into the block. If you are still top mount intercooler that was the most annoying part of the install tbh. Other than that everything is straight forward. I suggest printing out the instructions in color, watch this video, and take your time. Good luck!
