Default top mount cooler recommendations

guys,

im on the hunt for a good top mount cooler. unfortunately, the PWR cooler i was hoping for has not been made for a while :/

i've been recommended the STi cooler but was wondering if there were any other recommendations.

cheers

If you want a topmount i would go with the STi seeing as you can pick them up for less than half the price of the allegedly equal/worse performing process west.

STi all the way.

If you can get the spec c one, even better.

If you want even bigger, fit an 08+ STi TMIC.
