Default Would this fit?

Hey,

I'm curious as to whether a MY05 WRX midpipe and HKS muffler would fit an Impreza 2.5 RS '02?

Here's a few pics;

It won't fit as is.

The mid pipe is designed to bolt up to the back of a dump pipe which comes off the turbo.

It would probably fit if you added a small custom section in front of the mid pipe to make it work with the front part of the NA exhaust system, but I'm unsure if the hangers etc are in the same spot for the rear.

Would the muffler bolt directly onto the RS' stock mid pipe or would that need adjustments aswell?

Get a custom system made.
Is way cheaper than trying modify wrx systems to fit.
Ive been there and done that in my old car.

I'm not sure about the muffler, but good chance it doesn't.
