it would be a phase 1 ej22 (dual port).

Borla and borla replica

So the borlas would fit? I've always wanted to get them but wasn't sure if they would fit.

Almost any na impreza header on the market should fit your car.

Get borla replicas instead of borla because borla headers are known to crack

I dont think so...

All headers out there are for ej25, its hard to find single port headers. Good luck

some 2.2 were dual port but yes, single ports are really hard to find. 2.5 dual ports will work with 2.2 dual ports

on a side note, equal length and unequal length is a preference on what sound you like...unequal length will give a deeper tone

Okay cool. I probably am going to go with the Borla replicas since they probably will be alittle cheaper and so the unequal & equal length stuff just has to do with sound? if so I want unequal, Id lover to have the deep boxer rumble that you hear from STI's.

Equal length- cost a little more doesn't bolt onto cat section, more power gain, less rumble.
Unequal length- cheaper (if bolra rep) direct bolt on. More rumble, less power gain

I see. Damn, I want rumble and power gain lol but cool.

You wont notice the gain or loss at all. Borla reps are actually better than Borlas imo, I hear too many stories of Borlas cracking. I bought a set of eBay headers and they have been holding up very nicely. The fitting was a little off, had to force it in, but they are still very nicely made.

Okay cool yeah ill definitely will post a link of what I'm interested in once i find a few to show yawl that way I could also maybe save myself from getting something that really wont fit or something.

My replica UELs don't sit flush; they are too short. So just beware of that & some oil filters may be too big.

^^guess I lucked out. Mine fit pretty good. Had to force them a bit, but nothing serious.
Oh and no oil filter issues.

I just hope mine fit perfect as well.

Honestly, I think yours is a fairly isolated incident. 99% of the testimonials I've seen is that they fit exactly like the Borlas/stock.
