Default PERRIN - 2008WRX: Perrin 2008 Subaru WRX Hatchback Build


Click Here to return to the links page


The PERRIN Performance 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.

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!

Some items are out NOW! Like:

Front Sway Bar

Antenna

More to come very soon. We had a final meeting today on colors, styles and options for the entire PERRIN 2008 lineup. So stay tuned to the Vendor Announcements as well as the main page of www.perrinperformance.com for more information! I will try to have a link off the main page for all the 08 items so it will be easy to find what is new and specific to your car!

Thanks for the boost!

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!

Bingo!
Yup its a dinky turbo for a such a big engine. But it spools really fast, and makes great torque!

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.

Thanks!
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
