The full swap would be great but sounds like way too much work.

How about just stealing all the turbo parts (Snail, IC, IC piping...) & fitting those to your Tib?

Mad hit everything on the dime. Very difficult to figure.

Also like to point out that the WRX's intercooler is fed from its scoop. You would have very little ambient air flow to hit that intercooler in the Tib's engine bay, if it fits under the hood.

Basically, you could steal the turbo and thats it... and the WRX doesn't come with that good of a turbocharger to begin with. The intercooler really wouldn't work well in a Tiburon, and it has hardly any intercooler piping to speak of, and even if it did it wouldn't fit.
