Is this the coolest Subaru Impreza WRX
This is a car that has must really stand out in Alaska, after all how many of these machines can there be up there? However, this is a real nice car even though on the outside it has been completely finished in white, there are still some touches that make the car stand out from the crowd like those serious gold wheels.
What I love about this car, it is simple looks and serious power, this is the car that is being used on a daily basis to and from the owner Wence Estrada, who is a fisherman by trade, which is no easy job at the best of times and so coming home to this is something to look forward to.
The Subaru Impreza WRX is one brilliant car as it stands, the and yet this one must be one of the best looking examples around, it may not be up to the high level of performance as some import builders would go for, this one has the looks of a heavenly vehicle.

Perrin Cold Air Intake System Subaru WRX STI 08+
Product Description of the Air Intake System Subaru WRX from Perrin:
Perrin Cold Air Intake System Subaru WRX STI 08+ Increase horsepower and style under your hood with a PERRIN Cold air intake system. This new 08 Intake was designed from the beginning to be a cold air intake. This provides much better more consistent HP and better drivability in all conditions. Perrin also found that the stock intake does get heat soaked and causes a loss in power due to the high temps the sensor sees. In designing, their research team found that the proper MAF alignment and plumbing size are crucial to maintain proper air fuel ratios and prevent nasty check engine lights and cause the car to run dangerously lean. While this is very true Perrin has found that the new 08 MAF sensor is much different that MAF sensors in the past. This new MAF sensor is much more sensitive and the intake does throw off the MAF curve resulting in the car running differently than normal With this said, it is very important to note that Perrin’s intake is OK to bolt onto a stock tuned ECU vehicle. It is NOT OK to bolt onto a car with a custom tuned ECU vehicle. Because the intake does change how the car runs on a tuned map, Perrin offers Specific PERRIN custom tuned maps for their intake. If you are already a customer of the PERRIN Custom tuned Maps, these will be provided for free if you purchased the intake. If you are not a customer of the PERRIN Map program, you can simply order one of their custom maps through their website. You will see consistent gains in horsepower, throttle response and fuel economy. Also available in a cold air version for those wishing to extract every last bit of power from an intake system. Each Intake System include colourful and powder coated aluminium and silicone tubing, a PERRIN Performance TM foam air filter, MAF sensor housing and mounting hardware. As we have stated before, the 08 WRX and STI PERRIN Intake systems do change the Air flow readings at the MAF sensor slightly
