02 wrx turbo change

i have a blown 02 oem turbo and wanted to know if a 03 oem turbo will fit as a direct replacement for a 02, please list any modifications that would be necessary if any. I am trying to find a replacement and wanted to know if i could also be looking for a 03 to replace.

Actually, an '02 - '05 turbo should work. I think the '06 has the same turbo too but I'm not sure.

As was said above, any year WRX turbo will bolt right up.

However, you might want to consider this a sign from God that you should upgrade.
