Description
The Verus Engineering Two-Piece Front Splitter for the VA Subaru WRX/STI is designed to increase front-end downforce, reduce front-end lift, and work aerodynamically with the Verus Engineering rear diffuser to create a balanced aerodynamic package.
The kit automatically includes the Front Splitter Tie Kit (PN A0057A), providing the rigidity and durability required for the two-piece splitter blade system during high-speed driving.
Using state-of-the-art aerodynamic analysis during development, Verus Engineering evaluated splitter performance and designed the front splitter and rear diffuser to work effectively together on the VA chassis.
In-house 3D scan data was also used during development to achieve a near-OEM fit and finish.
The two-piece design is intended to reduce shipping costs and make replacement easier if the splitter is damaged. Individual half-splitter pieces can be purchased separately, allowing damaged sections to be replaced without replacing the entire splitter.

Aerodynamic Science
The Verus Engineering Ventus 1 package is designed to reduce overall lift and drag on the VA WRX while improving the vehicle's aerodynamic efficiency.
The two-piece front splitter works with the Verus Engineering rear diffuser to create a balanced aerodynamic package. The front splitter generates a low-pressure zone at the front of the vehicle, while the rear diffuser creates a low-pressure zone at the rear. Together, these components help provide a more proportioned aerodynamic balance across the VA chassis at speed.
The splitter support system is an important part of the Ventus 1 package, providing the structural support necessary for the splitter to withstand the aerodynamic loads generated during high-speed driving.
The resulting aerodynamic improvements can help the VA WRX/STI make better use of its available tire grip on the track, reduce lap times, and improve overall aerodynamic efficiency. Verus Engineering also positions the Ventus 1 package as suitable for daily-driven vehicles, where its aerodynamic efficiency can contribute to improved fuel economy.
Ventus 1 Aerodynamic Package
The Two-Piece Front Splitter is part of the Verus Engineering Ventus 1 aerodynamic package for the VA WRX. The package combines front and rear aerodynamic components to reduce lift and drag while maintaining a balanced aerodynamic setup.
The front splitter is specifically designed to work with the Verus Engineering rear diffuser, making the two components an effective combination for owners seeking a complete VA WRX/STI aerodynamic upgrade.
Installation
The splitter uses a simple bolt-on installation and includes the required support brackets, splitter tie assemblies, clevises, and hardware.
The included Front Splitter Tie Kit (PN A0057A) helps provide the rigidity and durability required for high-speed use.
