The Impreza N2010 uses the new larger 33mm air restrictor, introduced by the FIA to help balance the performance of Group N and the unrestricted Super2000 rally cars.  Increasing the restrictor diameter from 32 to 33mm, fitting high flow fuel injectors and recalibrating the ECU increases peak power by 20 bhp, but more significantly, improves torque and responsiveness throughout the rev range.

Subaru Rally Team USA driver Travis Pastrana wrapped up his winning 2009 Rally America season with yet another victory this weekend at the year-end Lake Superior Performance Rally. “This was a great rally for us,” said Pastrana. “It’s one of my favorites because it’s a more technical rally than some of the others on the circuit and it’s great to drive.” Heading into this event, Pastrana had already secured the Rally America driver’s title for 2009 and said his objective was to earn as many stage wins as possible. With nothing to lose, he admitted he drove hard and took plenty of risks to win all but two stages – falling only about four seconds short of an outright sweep over more than 120 miles of racing.

Piloting a lesser specification Subaru Impreza WRX STI at this past weekend’s Rally Colorado, round eight of 2009 Rally America which was taken place from 19-20 September, Subaru Rally Team USA (SRT USA) driver Ken Block was without his usual high-powered Open Class 2009 Subaru Impreza WRX STI and instead drove the Super Production (SP) class Subaru Impreza WRX STI of fellow SRT USA teammate Dave Mirra, who did not attend Rally Colorado due to a schedule conflict with a BMX event. The Super Production (SP) class, a new category in the 2009 Rally America series. The budget-minded SP class features much more restrictive regulations on modifications than the Open Class, where Block has been driving for the past three seasons.

Having worked with a number of different fuel injectors from around the world Litchfield have decided to produce their own version. With the cost of importing parts from Japan significantly more expensive and some of the products received from other parts of the world be questionable in quality.  It was decided to produce a UK sourced alternative and adapt it to suit the Subaru Impreza manifolds.

One of the most exciting developments for 2009 is our new Subaru Twin Entry Turbo series, as featured on our latest Type-20.  Designed as a bolt on replacement for the JDM Twinscroll cars these new turbos will support power from 380bhp to over 500bhp. We have worked with longstanding Turbo supplier Turbo Dynamics to produce our own unique Turbo exhaust housings.  Using the latest computer design and experienced British engineering we hope to offer a Turbo option to suit each customer’s needs.

To qualify for Top Safety Pick, a vehicle must earn the highest rating of “good” in the Institute’s front, side, and rear tests and be equipped with electronic stability control. Criteria to win are tough because the award is intended to drive continued safety improvements such as top crash test ratings and the rapid addition of electronic stability control, which is standard on the Legacy and Outback.
