The power and guile of Cosworth’s long history in Formula One is being infused into the Subaru Impreza.<\/p>\n

The result is a turbocharged 395-hp demonic hatch with bolstered brakes and suspension pieces for truly performance-driven enthusiasts: It’s called the Impreza STI CS400.<\/p>\n

Here’s the rub: Just 75 copies will be made–exclusively for Great Britain. And they’re all right-hand drive.<\/p>\n

But why dwell on that. Let’s imagine the possibilities and dive into the technicalities, which are worth knowing.<\/p>\n

Cosworth uses its own turbocharging technology to boost output from 296 hp to 395 ponies, and maximum delivery is available at the lower <\/span> threshold of 5,750 rpm (6,000 rpm was required for the stock version.) The engine is also fortified with high-performance pistons crafted in the same manner as Cosworth F1, heavy-duty cylinder studs and a higher-pressure oil pump. The turbocharger also gets a new compressor design.<\/p>\n

These upgrades allow the CS400 to hit 62 mph in 3.7 seconds and run the quarter-mile in 12.75 seconds. Top speed is limited to 155 mph. The six-speed manual transmission gets carbon synchromesh for the top three gear ratios. The car rides on all-wheel drive with a 50\/50 torque split as the default stetting that can be varied according to the situation.<\/p>\n

The chassis was reworked with Eibach coil springs with Bilstein inserts. Ride height was lowered 10 millimeters in front, and larger ventilated disc brakes were added in front with six-piston calipers. Inside are Recaro seats and piano-black center stack and trim accents.<\/p>\n

Again, the CS400 isn’t set to come to the States. But if it did, it would cost the equivalent of better than $61,000.<\/p>\n
