One of the very first tuners in Japan to announce the availability of a tuned version of the all new 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX STi (known as the F-Type Impreza in Japan, referring to the body model), Tommykaira posted a preproduction image of what will be known as the M20b on its website. (see below). 

The M20b sports a new stylized body kit that greatly enhances the look of the STi by removing the grille that comes standard on the 2006 (F Type) Impreza.  When Subaru released the new model, many enthusiasts disliked it because the front end of the STi looked too busy or too ugly.  The M20b shows off the first body kit ever considered for production and is very popular with enthusiasts---that is until they learn of the price tag.  Generally, Tommykaira items are priced in the very high end of the market and reflects the time, style, quality, and research and engineering that goes into Tommykaira's products. 

Tommykaira also tuned up the engine, increasing the capacity of the engine  from the usual 2.0 liters offered in the Japanese Subaru Impreza lineup to 2.2 liters.  The engine once fully tuned is rumored to easisly produce approximately 275 peak horsepower at 6400rpm and 306 peak torque at 4400rpm, which will make it one torque monster.  In our experience, Tommykaira is conservative with its numbers, so enthusiasts that pick one of these up should expect to get a lot more from it.
