Waste of money. Cross that one off your list :lol:

Hi Daniel

Perrin products are a quality product and well proven in general. You will find alot more users in USA than here though. Suggest you read reviews over on www.legacygt.com

Hi Dave,

I have briefly searched there, but i'm particularly interested in feedback of using these parts on Australian delivered models.

Cheers
Daniel

i had all the sillicone inlet / Y pipe on my Forester / radiator hoses. (not perrin) made a big difference over the stock plastic / rubber hoses.

smoother coming on boost, coming on slightly earlier. and not having to worry about the stock carp from cracking / splitting

cheers ;)

serious I thought they were more of a WANK factor and a placebo than anything you could actually feel :? :?

Individually they may not be much, but add them all together and one should notice something. :D

Does the silicon inlet fit the 2.0GT?

well look at the standered plastic intake compared to the sillicone one. much more air flow (as well as the stock pipe can get quite brittle where it clamps onto the turbo)

as well as the Y pipe. flows much more freely than the stock plastic one

Yea Chris i'm with Tony.. they are better then stocko plastic ones, my wagon I had to replace a few, casue they were shit house, when u clamp onto turbo, so hard to put the new plastic ones in, and they are pretty weak as all shit..

but as for performance, I danno? guess comes down to design, air flow etc.. ? so prob could b better :)

Feedback so far...

All parts except for the Top Mount Intercooler Hose Kits will suit Liberty's.

With regards to the Headers, i have been told the following...

The headers are listed as a direct fittment to the 08 WRX which is essentially the same engine as the 08 Liberty GT, so I would say that there should be no issue.

As for the splash tray, we have not re-fitted them due to heat issues. We were concerned with the possibility of melting the tray.


Cheers
Daniel

Is this a worthwhile upgrade?

Haha. Daniel, stop asking so many questions and do it already! :D All mods will give some sort of benefit! And when combined together, should yield good results!
