Speed Racer Performance is the company on ebay
The headers they sell are around $155.00 .

eh, you get what you pay for most of the time... but I think there's a lot of sport compact stuff that's over priced just cuz the market kind of has a "you get what you pay for" attitude... No doubt tho that Borla does make quality stuff... and their price isn't too bad actually.

Car Info: 2006 Impreza 2.5i
the 06' - 07' 2.5i's come with stock EQUAL length headers; which cannot produce the boxer rumble.
the 98' - 05' 2.5RS, comes with stock Un-equal length headers; which has the ability to produce the boxer rumble, if you've got an aftermarket exhaust or borla headers . .etc.
(I disregarded the imprezas under 98' cause idk if they had un-equal length headers)
Equal length = no boxer rumble, but more hp.
un-equal length = yes boxer rumble, less hp.
please correct me if i'm wrong :P
