Default Free Power Upgrades for Impreza WRX and STi

Subaru in the UK is offering free performance upgrades for its iconic Impreza WRX and STi Type-UK, raising power to 265 and 305 bhp respectively.

The deal covers the three-month period of May, June and July – or while stocks last – and is worth £1,995 for the STi and £1,600 on the WRX.

The Prodrive-developed Performance Packs are fitted by the dealer after registration and carry the full Subaru three year/60,000 mile warranty.

It means the Impreza WRX STi Type-UK sees its power rise to 305 bhp and torque leap from 253 lb-ft to 299 lb-ft resulting in a 0-60 mph time of 4.6 seconds and
0-100 mph in 12.2 seconds. Top speed is in excess of 155 mph.

Meanwhile, the standard WRX – available in both saloon and 5-door bodystyles – now has 265 bhp and 257 lb-ft of torque. The 0-60 mph time is reduced from an already rapid 5.6 seconds to 4.8 seconds with 100 mph coming up in 14.1 seconds instead of 15.9 seconds.

Both Prodrive Performance Packs include a reprogrammed Electronic Control Unit (ECU) and free-flow exhaust system with a large single rear tailpipe.

The Impreza WRX saloon costs £20,300 with the 5-door at £20,800 while the WRX STi Type-UK is £26,400 (all prices On-The-Road).Photo Gallery Free Power Upgrades for Impreza WRX and STi

because Subaru UK is almost seperate from Fuji Heavy Industries, they respect Prodrive for the Rally efforts, and give them a lot of control of UK Subaru market decisions.
Only downside is for me, do you know how big these PPP kits are! and so heavy too! luckily we dont fit many normally, but this is going to get tough because we only have enough space to store about 6 or 7 kits at one time

but on a final note, IM (UK division) rocks, Subaru really rocks and Prodrive seriously rocks
