GSC P-D Subaru EJ205/EJ207/EJ257 36mm Head (STD) Chrome Polished Intake Valve - Set of 8 for 2002-2021 Impreza WRX STI
These GSC Power-Division intake valves feature a 36mm head diameter and standard 103.45mm length for direct fit in Subaru EJ205 EJ207 EJ257 engines in 2002-2021 Impreza WRX and STI models. Chrome polished stems cut friction for extended life in high boost and RPM conditions while bead blasted heads enhance airflow. This set of 8 valves supports reliable power gains in turbocharged Subaru builds.
