Subaru STI Upgrades

Upgrading to STI Subaru parts is the first step to optimizing the power of your motor and reducing strains on the fuel emission system. In addition to accessorizing with STI brakes, turbochargers, emissions systems, and aesthetic accoutrements, you can lower your suspension and thereby get a smoother, safer ride. Talk to your mechanic before upgrading, so that you create a symmetric turbo system.

You might also want to consider STI engine mounts. These mounts are made of neoprene rubber, which works better in terms of handling bumps in the road than does the factory provided rubber. This heavy-duty engine mount works best after you've completed other STI performance modifications; it should keep your drive solid for a long time to come.

Revitalizing Your Subaru with an STI Engine Mount

Remember that the neoprene STI engine mounts are a bit stiff, at least at the beginning. You should reverberations in the cockpit of your Subaru for a month or so, until the rubber softens. You can upgrade to even more stiff STI mounts, which should eliminate the jostling of the factory mounts. These super stiff mounts are engineered for racing applications, so you may get more noise vibration.

That said, the stiffer STI mounts should hold your transmission snugly in place, even if you go off the road. Talk to your Subaru dealer to figure out which kind of STI engine mount is most appropriate for your vehicle given your driving habits. Technicalities aside, customer reviews about STI mounts are generally nothing short of glowing--check online for more Subaru in the feedback.
