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.

WRX header on a 05 2.5?

saw a video where the guy put a WRX header in a 2.5 (along with other mods like stromung catback and intake) but it sounded great!!!

has anyone else done this and is it easy to mod to fit the 2.5?

does anyone have vids of these

well the wrx header flows into an uppipe which goes into the turbo..... if you want to use a wrx header you will have to either have a turbo set up or you can custom fab a pipe which will connect the header to your exhaust.

your best bet is to stick with borla headers.

I have wrx headers on my 2.5i, and you need to customize and fab it, for it to work. Not only that, but you need new o2 sensor bungs, and lengthen the o2 sensors, and a new exhaust gasket.
