The PERRIN Performance (http://www.perrinperformance.com) show car started life as a 2008 WRX hatchback with the premium pack, and a whopping 14miles on the trip meter.
The formula to build the show car is simple, turbo, FMIC, turbo back exhaust, fuel system that would support 500WHP, bigger swaybars, coilovers, and nice sticky wide tires, and good engine management.Project Over View (http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1370820) <--Click Here

Well we always have to push the envelope a bit at PERRIN! This car was just shot for several national and international publications. You can see more of the decal scheme there in bold color or stay tuned here for more info and photos! Hope you like what is coming!

I'm waiting on the rear sway bar and order both the front and rear together :)

The link for the 08 items would also help a bunch!

What is the stock turbo on the 2008 wrx?

PetRex

td04 with a legacy gt housing.

Perrin
11-12-2007, 01:05 PM
I think that is correct!

Perrin
11-14-2007, 12:28 PM
Bingo!
Yup its a dinky turbo for a such a big engine. But it spools really fast, and makes great torque!

How much bigger is the VF40 compared to the stocker in the 08 wrx?

PERRINJeff
11-20-2007, 12:25 PM
I would say about 30HP?? BUt who knows. I had measured all the wheels, but i lost that info! Damn! But it would be a good upgrade if you found a used one for a couple hundred bucks.

The hatch is really growing on me! Its huge inside, and feels more nimble. Can't wait for the STI and some big power! Not that 400 isn't enough :)

Thanks!

Any updates on new parts? I'm particularly interested in the exhaust/muffler and how it sounds/performs
