Cobb Top Mount Intercooler Kit with Charge Pipe — Black — 2015-2021 Subaru WRX
The Cobb Top Mount Intercooler Kit with Charge Pipe in black for the 2015-2021 Subaru WRX is a complete TMIC upgrade package that replaces the factory top mount intercooler with a larger Cobb unit and includes the charge pipe for a complete installation. The TMIC upgrade improves charge air cooling over the factory unit, enabling more aggressive calibration on the FA20DIT.

TMIC Upgrade: Larger Core, Improved Charge Cooling
The factory TMIC on the 2015-2021 WRX is sized conservatively for the FA20DIT’s stock boost targets. As boost levels increase — either through OTS maps or with the NexGen system — the factory TMIC becomes a charge cooling bottleneck. Cobb’s TMIC upgrade provides a larger core that improves charge air cooling capacity, enabling the Accessport to work with denser, cooler charge air at higher boost levels.
Charge Pipe, Accessport TMIC Map Compatibility, and Stage Path
The included charge pipe is the correct pipe for the Cobb TMIC installation — sized and bent for the TMIC’s outlet position and the WRX’s intake manifold location. The Accessport TMIC OTS maps account for the TMIC upgrade’s improved cooling capacity. For builds planning to eventually move to a full NexGen Stage 2 with FMIC, the TMIC kit is an intermediate upgrade that provides improved charge cooling while retaining the top mount intercooler configuration.

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
The Cobb TMIC + Charge Pipe kit in black for the 2015-2021 WRX is the correct TMIC upgrade for Accessport-equipped builds that want improved charge cooling in the top mount configuration. Designed to be used with Cobb Accessport TMIC OTS maps.
