Ok here it goes... I am going to attempt to adapt a Oil Cooler/Water Cooler to my turbo. I have two that my Dad is not using for his Hot Rod Ford.
one that is supposed to be mounted under the car some ware and the other is to be mounted in the grill... I was hoping to mount it either on top or under the intercooler and if that is not going to work in front of the radiator.

Not to be rude, but why?
Your turbo already has a water cooler....via your radiator.
Oil cooler...not really necessary unless you're building a dedicated track car, even then, I know guys running crazy hp that don't have an oil cooler.
BUT, maybe you've got a good reason, so I'm asking. :)

+2 for why? I see no need for it, unless you can convince me otherwise.

Well I have two that are just lying around from building Hot Rods.. Other wise I can just hook it up to trans and rear end.. or as the consensus may be sell them on eBay for 150 each. Oh well it was just an idea.. and to keep me out of trouble :-)

yeah man, I wouldn't mess with extra oil or water lines if you don't have to.....if something brakes, you're fubar.

Sell them on ebay and buy something that is designed specifically for your Impreza model if youre dying to mod something :)
