Car Info: 2006 Impreza 2.5i
as for exhausts, a 2002 or 2003 WRX axle back will fit without out any mods. alright sound, little less restriction, and a dual tip 
I used that for a couple months and then bought a 3 inch cat-back exhaust made for an STi. to use this you must cut the pipe just after the first bend and extend it about 3 inches. no big just a little 3" ID extender and some welding. but the 3inch piping gives a more throatier tone and not raspy like a civic.
and for turbos, what turbo kits are you guys looking at? the 06 2.5i and WRX have differnent intake manifolds and i dont believe the IC will fit. ive been thinking about a turbo ever since i got my *** handed to me by my buddys Saab 93 Viggen.
hope the exhaust portion helps

i got a WRX AEM Intake to fit on my 07 2.5i
(so dont say they dont fit, lol) [then again, i did have to fabricate one small pipe to connect the 2 pipes together, but if you only want a WAI, you can use the WRX/STI intakes!]

from what i've seen, you can use a stock wrx/sti up pipe & down pipe & TMIC (top mount inercooler) & of coarse the stock turbo (06+). now anything else i have no clue as for i'm still researching this info! (i might even experiment [sp?] a little)
