The effect of this is to effectively retard the timing.   The Impreza has a superb intercooler (despite what other tuners and common sense may tell you) and we really reserve the Aquamist system for those cars which have detonation problems.

TUNING ACCESSORIES - OIL COOLER KIT   This is an incredibly popular conversion in Japan where they often fit an oil cooler kit before they fit a performance air filter! A remote oil filter housing is used to maintain ground clearance. The cooler itself is a 14 row x 250mm Mocal unit with Aeroquip stainless steel/PTFE high pressure hosing and light aluminium anodised fittings.   An oil cooler has a number of advantages: it increases the volume of oil in the system which means each unit of oil is doing less work, and lowering the oil temperature will reduce engine operating temperature dramatically. Suitable for Impreza UK (92-98/99-00), WRX (v.1-v.6) and STi (v.1-v.6).

TUNING ACCESSORIES - INTERCOOLER SHIELD   Most people do not realise how much of a reduction in efficiency and cooling is caused by the intercooler fins becoming bent. This restricts the air flow through it and therefore decreases its heat exchanging abilities.   The intercooler shield is a cover that protects the intercooler fins. The cover comes with fitting instructions and mounting screws. Suitable for all Imprezas.

BLITZ BOOST CONTROLLERS   We are currently offering two boost controllers from the Blitz range - the Dual SBC Spec-S and the Dual SBC Spec-R.   The Spec-S is the most cost effective boost controller available from Blitz. It features a single solenoid that diverts pressure away from the turbo actuator to achieve higher boost. This solenoid is linked to a smart control unit installed inside the car, which allows you to adjust the boost pressure manually. The control unit has four programmable channels, each of which can be programmed with an individual boost setting to suit driving conditions or styles. For example, if it's wet and you're struggling around town to get traction, then you can select a channel you've set up with low boost. Alternatively if you're taking part in a track day and want maximum speed, then you can select a channel with high boost for maximum power.

Another key feature of the SBC Spec-S is a programmable boost limiter, which when activated prevents possible engine damage caused by the turbo(s) over boosting. You also have the option to enter a boost warning level, when this level is reached the control unit will alert you by beeping and changing the LCD background colour to Red. The Spec-S is recommended up to 18 Psi.   The SBC Spec-R is very similar to the Spec-S, the main difference being the Spec-R has twin solenoids meaning it can control up to 2.5 bar (36 Psi) of boost. All the functions are the same as the Spec-S and the control unit is exactly the same size and shape. Both units are supplied with a fitting kit and installation diagrams.

BLITZ TURBO TIMERS   All turbo engines need to be run at idle for a time after driving under boost. This is because the turbo runs at around 900°C, and when the engine is switched off its oil supply is also stopped, meaning the bearings are not cooled and can quickly overheat. Thus the engine needs to be left at idle until the turbo has cooled down sufficiently for the bearings to survive.   The Blitz Full Auto Turbo Timer measures how hard the car has been driven, and automatically adjusts the time the engine will be left idling for until it is safe to switch off the engine, thus preventing expensive turbo damage and prolonging the life of the turbocharger. This is especially relevant for modified turbo engines which run at high temperatures.

The Blitz Dual Turbo Timer adds an electronic boost gauge function to the Full Auto model, so you can see exactly what your turbo is doing.

CLUTCHES - AP RACING   Two high-performance AP Racing clutch kits are perfect for all WRX and STi cars and later UK cars - the Organic Clutch Kit and the 4-Paddle Clutch Kit.   The Organic clutch kit has increased spring clamp pressure compared to the standard STi clutch, the design of the clutch diaphragm cover means that the greater pressure does not translate into a heavier clutch pedal. The clutch plate is a full circle organic plate and is not harsh like performance clutches, making it very suitable for everyday road use. A superb road clutch which is not heavy and will handle 350 bhp.   The 4-Paddle clutch kit is designed for heavy duty and 'off road' applications the sprung centre cerametallic driven plate nevertheless affords some protection against drive line shocks. A rigid adaptor plate without cushion segments is used. The driven plate incorporates cerametallic pads which are designed to withstand the high temperatures associated with high energy input competition applications.   Please note that kit does not include release bearing.
