Every component is fabricated from high‑impact, lightweight plastic that balances durability with weight savings, ensuring the kit can withstand the rigors of both street driving and track days.

The conversion kit is covered by a standard warranty from AWE Tuning, providing peace of mind for owners who demand reliability alongside performance.

Beyond the core performance enhancements, the kit also offers improved throttle response, sharper ignition timing, and a more linear power delivery across the rev range. These benefits translate into quicker lap times on the track and a more engaging driving experience on winding roads. The kit’s design adheres to Subaru’s engineering standards, ensuring compatibility with the vehicle’s existing wiring harness and ECU mapping, which minimizes the need for extensive reprogramming.

Usage

This conversion kit is ideal for drivers who regularly attend track events, autocross competitions, or spirited driving sessions on backroads.

Whether you are a seasoned racer looking to shave seconds off your lap or a weekend enthusiast seeking a noticeable performance uplift, the kit delivers consistent results. It is also suitable for daily driving, as the upgraded ignition system provides smoother power delivery without compromising reliability.

Installation can be performed in a well‑equipped garage with standard tools. The kit’s components are designed to fit within the existing engine bay space, meaning no major modifications to the vehicle’s structure are required. After installation, the vehicle retains its original emissions compliance, making it a practical upgrade for both track and street use.
