Perrin Subaru STi

Perrin is one of the best known tuners for the Subaru WRX and STi cars.  They offer great parts that produce tons of horsepower.  And this sweet 2008 Subaru WRX Sti has practically the full assortment of Perrin Performance Parts installed on it.

The 2.5L Boxer engine gets a completely new GT3071R turbo that is capable of supporting over 400 Horsepower.  The rotated turbo allows for less restriction to the intake path.  The Perrin turbo kit also includes a 2” Up-Pipe and a 3” down-pipe.  Both are made from stainless Steel.  Cooling chores are taken care of by a massive Perrin front mount intercooler.  More fuel is added into the mix thanks to 800cc injectors.  The single tip high flow exhaust looks stock but has a mean growl.  Bringing everything together is a Cobb AccessPORT engine tuner.  The results are 385 horsepower to the wheels and 400 lb-ft of torque.

The handling department is taken care of by H&R Coilovers and Perrin front and rear sway bars complete with end links.  The Perrin STi rolls on Konig Runway 18-inch rims with a black anodized finish. The tires are Advan Neova 255/35/18.  To finish off the look of the car simple digital camo decals were installed all over the exterior of the STi.  The car retains its stock bumpers.

The Perrin Subaru WRX STi was a test bed for 2008 and up performance parts.  But the resulting show car illustrates that with $10k parts and a unique vision, you can have a real attention getter.
