I just mounted a 2002 WRX exhaust to our 91 Legacy Turbo. The modifications that needed to be done were as follows: Axleback pipe lengthened 5.5 inches and replacement of exhaust hangers Midpipe lengthened 2 inches at the front.

I removed the door card on the drivers side and sprayed the lock mechanism down with some PB blaster. I let it sit for a bout 5 minutes, then sp...
