Description
The Verus Engineering Street Front Splitter is designed to increase front-end downforce, reduce aerodynamic lift, and improve high-speed traction on the Subaru WRX/STI VA chassis. Developed with advanced aerodynamic analysis and in-house vehicle scan data, the splitter is engineered to work effectively with the Verus Engineering rear diffuser for a balanced aerodynamic package.
The Street Front Splitter is ideal for enthusiasts looking to combat front-end lift and improve vehicle stability at high speeds. By increasing front-end downforce, the splitter helps the front tires maintain greater grip during high-speed driving and track use.
During the research and development process, Verus Engineering utilized state-of-the-art aerodynamic analysis software to estimate splitter performance and optimize the relationship between the front splitter and rear diffuser. In-house 3D scan data was also used to achieve a near-OEM fit and finish.
For vehicles regularly exceeding 100 MPH, Verus Engineering recommends adding the Front Splitter Tie Kit (PN A0057A) to provide additional support for high-speed use.

Aerodynamic Science
The Verus Engineering Front Splitter is part of the Ventus1 aerodynamic package developed for the VA Subaru WRX. The Front Splitter Support System is designed to provide the structural support required for the splitter to withstand high-speed aerodynamic loads.
The Verus Engineering Ventus1 package is engineered to reduce overall vehicle lift while also reducing drag on the VA WRX. The combination improves the vehicle's overall aerodynamic efficiency and helps create a more balanced aerodynamic setup.
The front splitter and rear diffuser are specifically designed to work together on the VA WRX chassis. This coordinated approach helps create a well-proportioned aerodynamic balance at speed rather than relying on additional downforce at only one end of the vehicle.
The resulting aerodynamic package is designed to help the VA WRX make better use of its available tire grip during track driving, while also improving aerodynamic efficiency for daily driving. The Ventus1 package is suitable for both track-focused vehicles and daily-driven Subaru WRX models.
Installation
The Verus Engineering Street Front Splitter is designed for a simple bolt-on installation using the supplied hardware.
For vehicles that regularly operate at speeds above 100 MPH, Verus Engineering recommends the Front Splitter Tie Kit (PN A0057A) to provide additional structural support for high-speed applications.
