Cobb NexGen Stage 2 Power Package w/SF Intake – Silver – 2015-2021 Subaru WRX

Cobb NexGen Stage 2 Power Package with SF Intake — Silver — 2015-2021 Subaru WRX

The Cobb NexGen Stage 2 Power Package for the 2015-2021 Subaru WRX is the complete hardware upgrade that moves the FA20DIT from Stage 1 to a front-mount intercooled, high-boost Stage 2 system. It includes the Accessport V3, the NexGen SF Intake, the NexGen FMIC in silver finish, the NexGen FMIC pipe kit, and the NexGen boost control solenoid — the complete integrated system Cobb developed specifically for the VA WRX FA20DIT platform.

What Stage 2 Adds Over Stage 1

The NexGen Stage 2 system is built around three hardware changes that work together as an engineered package: the front mount intercooler, the NexGen SF intake, and the NexGen boost control solenoid. The FMIC moves charge air cooling from the top of the engine (where the factory TMIC sits, directly in the heat-soak zone) to the front bumper opening, where ambient airflow keeps charge temperatures dramatically lower. The NexGen SF intake routes air from the airbox through a wider, smoother path to the turbocharger inlet, supplying the turbocharger with the improved airflow it needs to reach Stage 2 boost targets. The NexGen boost control solenoid replaces the factory unit with a higher-response valve that allows the Accessport ECU map to execute boost control commands more precisely and reach boost levels the factory solenoid cannot maintain reliably. These three components are developed together — the FMIC’s cooling capacity, the intake’s airflow capability, and the solenoid’s control precision are all matched to each other and to the Accessport Stage 2 OTS map that orchestrates them.

System Components and NexGen Technology

The Accessport V3’s Stage 2 OTS maps are calibrated specifically for the NexGen hardware configuration — they are not Stage 1 maps with higher boost targets, but independently developed calibrations that account for the FMIC’s lower charge air temperatures, the intake’s improved airflow, and the more precise boost control the NexGen solenoid enables. On quality 93-octane fuel, the Stage 2 OTS maps target meaningfully higher boost levels than Stage 1, with ignition timing optimized for the cooler, denser charge air the FMIC delivers. The result is improved power across the entire mid-range and top end versus Stage 1, with better consistency under sustained hard driving because the FMIC keeps charge temperatures stable even on back-to-back pulls or track sessions.

Why Choose Cobb Tuning

Cobb Tuning has been developing performance software and hardware for turbocharged enthusiast vehicles since 1999. Founded in Austin, Texas, Cobb built its reputation on the Accessport and expanded into a full catalog of hardware engineered to complement it. Every OTS map is developed in-house on real vehicles, and every hardware product is validated as part of a complete system — not sourced and sold in isolation. That integrated approach is why Cobb produces consistent, reliable results across the builds we see every day.

The RallySport Take

NexGen Stage 2 for the 2015-2021 WRX is where the FA20DIT’s full performance potential becomes accessible. The factory TMIC is the hard limit for Stage 1 performance — its location atop the engine, sitting in engine bay heat, limits how low charge air temperatures can get and therefore limits how aggressively the Stage 1 map can target boost and timing. The NexGen FMIC at the front bumper sees ambient airflow directly, keeping charge temperatures far lower than the TMIC can achieve and enabling the Stage 2 OTS maps to target boost levels and ignition advance the TMIC-limited Stage 1 configuration cannot safely reach. The silver intercooler is the visual centerpiece of the NexGen Stage 2 system — it is visible through the front bumper opening and it represents the most significant single performance gain available for the FA20DIT WRX. All NexGen components are developed and validated together, and the Stage 2 OTS maps are calibrated specifically for this hardware configuration.
