Re: 08 Forester intercooler
I forget what is different, but it can work, it's what I have, haven't installed it yet though. IIRC it was just some minor difference.

EDIT: DEPENDS ON THE YEAR - '06-08 Forester TMIC are same as '06-07....don't use '04-'05.Apex3 wrote:According to this, the Forrester and 06-07 are the same

See THIS.
No offense, but they aren't.....here's a POST that shows the difference.
The BPV and their mounts are different. The Forester will likely hit the throttle cables.

Re: 08 Forester intercooler
DON'T GET THE FXT INTERCOOLER, unless you're getting some sort of adapter to just run the stock turbo leggy bpv. The fxt bpv bumps right into your throttle and doens't fit.
