    You just want the turbo and the front mount core or kits for both? I don't think APS makes a kit for the 99RS, and I don't know of anyone that makes a kit for the RS for a 35R.

    I just looking for a turbo not a kit. And as far as the fmic aps does make a kit for the
    GC8 wrx. But I can't find a company that has it on there website. but is know that does not mean they can't get i just haven't taken the time to call anyone yet.

    I understand they make one for the GC8 WRX, but I don't know that it'll just bolt up to an RS block. You can probably find a turbo on Nasioc or eBay. I don't know that you'll want to put this on an RS block. I don't think it'll take that sort of abuse.

    I hear you on the rs block. I don't have a rs block though, I have an ej22 block, 02 wrx heads, and a 99 rs intake manifold. I do agree im sure the rs block would be strap metal.

    I take it this is the 22T block and you have some sort of forged pistons at the very least? Not trying to be a buzzkill or anything, just lookin' out for the massive damage aspect of things. I see nitrous in one of your other pics, and I see EJ22, but that doesn't tell me much about the inside of that block. Obviously you can do what you want, it's your car, I'm just playing devil's advocate for the longevity.

    Attaboy. Never mind. This is the same route I was headed down about a year ago. EJ22T 8.2:1 same rods, but wiseco pistons. Wiseco sent the wrong retainer clips and the block is now sitting on the floor at MTKA awaiting me and money to help it out. I have plans for it though.

    Since you have WRX heads, you can probably just get a WRX or STi compatible GT35R kit. The piping for the FMIC will likely need to be modded to fit both the turbo and the intake mani you are using, but otherwise, you should be fine. There are places that sell GC8 IC kits, but you might be better off picking up an IC core and buying one of those eBay piping kits for it and just make the pipes to fit the car. Most of my piping is from a TurboXS WRX kit, but it has been hacked and welded to fit reverse manifold and the rotated 35R.

    I have been looking at just getting a IC core but i like the aps ic because it will fill the bumper and i can still keep the stock drive lights. do you think i can just order an aps core?

    readymix i like you set up (looks clean) i am also thinking about turning the intake manifold around

    im not sure if you can just order a core? you should be able to fined a core that you could mount and work around the lights.

    Lots of places you can buy a core. Check eBay, they always have just plain cores. You'd have to weld tabs to mount it up, but it would work fine.

    i was talking about the aps one. don't think they just sell the core alone i think you have to buy a kit. i bought just the core for my car. aps 750 or what ever it is but i bought it used and had to fix it. it was in a crash and had a cracked end tank. but yeah ebay has a ton of cores.

    We can get you a core to fit your needs. Specify your hp goal for the core and size.
    Let me know if you're looking for a new or used GT35r. If new let me know and I'll get you a price.

    I have a brand new gt30r in stock if you'd be interested in that.

    I also can get aps intercoolers for gc8's.
