Engine/Power - non turbo (All non turbo Imprezas) Who needs a turbo when you have 2500cc? Cams, intakes, exhausts, etc. The 2.2L and 1.8L Subies are cool too.

question for a 07 impreza 2.5 rs (aftermarket turbo?)

Kid- check out the avo turbo kit from rallitek.com, One of the best turbo kits you can get for 06-07 2.5i's that will run comfortably. You can only run it max of like 8psi, but it's suppose to give your car a nice kick in the Azz. I was thinking of doing it, but the kit is about 4k and with getting extra parts you will need and then getting it installed, it's gonna run you a pretty penny. That's why I decided to go n/a. For headers, there are two that I know of. Borla's and rallitek's. Get some pics d00d

I'm pretty sure that you'd have to go through a lot of engine work to run a turbo on the 2.5i engine safely.. Internals/Gaskets and basically all the moving parts of your engine would have to be swapped out. That's just my 2 cents though, if I were going to do it, then I'd take the extra precautions rather then risk blowing my engine.

Depends on your budget.. but I'd generally go ..
1. CAI first, might notice small gains, and it's cheaper than the exhaust
2. The exhaust here to free up some HP and for the nice sound
3. Pulley next because performance should come before subs and amps etc. in my opinion, that stuff is all for show
4. Everything else, head unit being first

I agree with Dojuh, and do the head unit first as well, 'cause if you have a factory deck you don't have any preamp lines to run to the amp
