Is it an easy swap? Fit's no problem in WRX?

I may be interested if no one else has picked it up.

Thanks,

With tuning from Nate, we gained 12 whp with the addition of the intercooler. The fit is tight, but with a little cursing and slightly moving the ac line, it fits perfectly. Last I saw it, it had no bent fins. It is practically new. I think the biggest difference will be less opportunity heat soak.
Didn't you have a VF30 or something? I don't know that the stock I/C is so inadequate that the stock turbo will notice the bigger I/C temperature-wise.
