2016 subaru wrx short throw shifter review

A helical-type limited-slip front differential and a TORSEN® torque-sensing limited-slip rear differential optimize side-to-side torque distribution, helping to prevent the inside wheels from slipping during cornering. Sensor inputs that include steering angle, throttle position, RPM, lateral-g, yaw, brake, ABS and wheel speed govern torque transfer response. A mechanical limited-slip type center differential augments an electronically controlled center differential to enhance torque transfer performance. This sophisticated system uses planetary-type center differential gears with a nominal 41:59 torque split. The WRX STI is exclusively equipped with the Multi-Mode Driver Controlled Center Differential (DCCD) version of Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. SI-DRIVEĢ016 Subaru WRX STI © Fuji Heavy Industries, Ltd. Incline Start Assist can momentarily prevent the car from rolling backward when being driven away from a stop on an incline. The WRX STI is equipped exclusively with a specially reinforced 6-speed manual transmission. The turbocharger produces a maximum of 14.7 PSI of boost, and quad exhaust tailpipes emit a distinctively deep growl. Special reinforcing ribs in the block provide additional strength, and the crankshaft is nitride-hardened. A semi-closed deck design provides the same cooling efficiency as an open-deck cylinder block but with the higher strength of a full closed deck. The engine is based on a specially reinforced semi-closed deck engine block with high-strength cast pistons. The engine produces 305 horsepower (SAE) at 6,000 rpm and 290 lb-ft of peak torque at 4,000 rpm. The 2.5-liter turbocharged/intercooled 4-cylinder BOXER engine, exclusive to the WRX STI, employs the Dual Active Valve Control System (DAVCS). 2016 Subaru Series.HyperBlue WRX STI © Fuji Heavy Industries, Ltd.
