Cosworth Impreza STI CS400

The latest Subaru STI series from year 2007 was rather a dull fellow. Really “Bums,” spirit and power he could not mobilize as correct if one looks back on his predecessor sober brothers in STI adroitness and summarizes.
The Cosworth Impreza STI CS 400 will all be different. Not only the name but the most performance.

The STI CS400 was created in collaboration with the British engine manufacturer Cosworth. The ensure that the standard 2.5 liter boxer engine now goes to brutal way. They manage the Impreza STI CS400heftige-horsepower 400 Turbo with 542 Nm of torque evoked.
In comparison, the series creates STI 300hp and 407 hp.

This performance is achieved through improved engine components:
A new turbocharger with increased boost pressure Cosworth brings a more aggressive power delivery, high performance piston provide for less friction and less weight. Forged connecting rods, special engine mounts and improved cylinder head gaskets with a special oil pump are also blocked.
Optimized exhaust system, in the form of sports-Kat and larger outlets, makes the performance conversion complete.
The whole hand happened at Cosworth and is a sure sign that the STI CS 400 runs as the sow.
0-100 km / h in 3.7 seconds, it goes by – This is a super sports car level!

In terms of handling has been improved and optimized for. A mixture of Eibach springs and Bilstein shock absorbers is already a start. By 10 mm lowering is the focus of the Subaru STI Cosworth CS400 deeper and it is thus much better on the asphalt. Improved brakes from AP Racing to keep the cars in check. Visually the whole thing from new front and rear valance is underlined. The 18-inch alloy wheels carry the rest of the way and look at this very chic.

In addition to the standard equipment with the “normal” when there are STI STI CS400-chairs of Recaro sport and numerous plaques inside and outside, which indicates what kind of over-hit it has to act here. Sounds all well so far, but somewhere there is always a catch. The Cosworth Subaru is not officially available in Germany. The 75 copies are made available exclusively in the UK. For the equivalent of 60,000 euros, there is mobile.
