perrin h6 STi

wow.

 

that's actually due to the difference in the h4 and the h6.
That 6 cyl. is throwin the RPM's off.

It is an awesome video though. That things sounds awesome!!!

 

Pretty cool but how come it's only 430 horse instaed of like 800 since it has two more cyclinders?

 

Oh ok that explains it, then why would you want an h6? I would stick with the H4 we already have which is built for boosting! Right!

 

its unique

 

what is he reving to? pay attention to the rpms at the end of the video

 

Yeah so 5,000 is 3,200 rpm. Sti cluster is seriously taking out. I had to remind myself it was the H6 motor when i was watching the video. The car is unique, but its alot of money. I would have loved to have seen the speedo up close and see how fast he was going. It just didn't seem that fast except for the last run when it appeared he slipt the clutch around 3200 rpm. Its still pretty cool, Perrin wanted to be the first and they didn't waist anytime doing it...

 

:ugh: ??? not sure what you mean

 

he means that when the tack was reading 5000rpm's that it was only really revving at 3200 rpm's because its a H6 not an H4 so it looked like he was always revving around 9 grand in the video.

this thread explains it more

 

I think it was about two SubieSport's ago but I remember there is someone out there building H6 turbos with stronger engine internals. Anyone remember what I'm talking about or have that issue?

 

has anyone done a set up with two small turbos on a scoob?
I think that would be pretty unique also

 

i heard of one that had twin gt30r turbos and a supercharger

^^ except I believe thats still an H4


I think I've heard of someone doing two smallish turbos on an H6, but I can't remember where I've seen it before

 

i belive thats a great set up, 2 small turbos maybe 2 16 g's on double top and front mount IC, on a H4 or H6 would be a great setsup

 

ya on either motor it would yield fantastic hp

 

two intercoolers?

 

It's pretty wild... Porsche has been making some badazz H6 turbos for years though.

Corky Bell praises the old 911's like no other in his book "Maximum Boost: Designing, Testing, and Installing Turbocharger Systems" and those weren't even watered cooled.

Here's a link to some info on Porsche's latest and greatest high, and not so high-powered H6 engines.

It seems like Subaru could make a mean H6 turbo if they really wanted to IMO.

This is where the second post merges....
