yea i am pretty sure it will work on any dual port. but if you get it you will probably loose bottom end power and might increase boost time(not good) plus $134 seems like too good of a deal.
u do have a turbo right?

Well the seller does have over 6k item transactions... And its 99% positive feedback. But I guess there is that 1% heh.

The only ebay headers I would trust are the stone mtn racing ones from SSautochrome.com.

yea on ebay all the feedback that he has, is probably "great i recieved the right product and fast!!!!!!" they probably never say anything about the quality of it. cause one when it breaks its too late to leave feed back, or two they dont install it yet

SSautochrome honda headers crack really quickly, I doubt the subaru one is much better but they do have a flex joint.

The welds look odd in those pics, like they're rusty. That sort of thing happens when you use the wrong wire on stainless.

I have that exact header. Seems like a pretty damn good piece for the money. It very well might end up cracking, but I'll weld it back up if it does. I'm in the process of modifying mine since my turbo is WAY to big to fit in the stock WRX turbo location, plus I have and external wastegate. So I was looking for something cheap enough that I didn't feel bad cutting the end of and attacking it with the welder.

Please buy this, try it and write a review...I'd like one of these if they aren't a complete disaster.

yup, had to grind off a bunch from the EJ25 SOHC heads. Not really a problem though. It's a lot of material to take off, but it's mostly just a large embossment that goes to nothing. I took photos, I'll post them soon.
