simply do a search at the engine section will get you a lot of info you need.

you will get a lot of words on BOV, how it will just ruin the way your car runs. which is true. to get the best performance keep the stock bpv. unless you just want to hear the bov sound which thats why most of the people get it.

exhaust would be the same. dont know about ebay exhaust. but as long as is 3 inches piping and bell mouth DP would be good enough. equal length header will take out the boxer rumble sound, so be ready for it.

no bov

exhaust, you pay for what you get, ebay exhausts sometimes have fitment issues as well as leaks at the welds, invest a little money and buy even used stuff from here or one of the other suby sites.

the money you'd spend on an aftermarket BOV and exhaust
just spend it on AP2 and protune
you'll make more power/safer and no noise/attraction/attention
you can even say you're bone stock

Save yourself the misery and keep the stock bpv as
aftermarket ones will ruin the way your Subaru runs.
I would be very leering about purchasing parts on eBay
since alot of their parts have fitment problems and are
poor quality.
Get a downpipe and catback exhaust along with a
Cobb Accessport.

I have a Cobb DP and dual tip Perrin exhaust and it sounds deep and not too loud. I like how the muffler looks like the stock one and doesn't catch people's attention unless I gun it hard. As for the Bov, yeah keep the stock bpv on. I used to run a GFB bov and I liked the sound it made but I put back the stock one and my car actually runs better.
