i would say the 2nd link some of the pictures are different...

look at the engine picture and there is a number plate attached to the bumper on the sideways one no number plate it is on the bonnet !!!

again look at the engine picture and it shows bright orange indicator sideways one again no orange indicators...

so either a mixture of old and new pictures or just a silly seller..... if they have mixed pictures up I wonder how much else is different ????

Also
Engine is fairly stock with just induction, front mount, an equal length manifold
So no remap, but quoting 350bhp

Zero feedback is taking the ****

How can you fit an equal length manifold without going for twin scroll?

How can you go twin scroll without a remap?

If you had gone twin scroll and remap, why not say so?

Why cant you fit an EL HEADER on single scroll?

Got a set on mine and made an butt load extra power, torque and response as you arent strangling the engine with that stupid noise...

Why answer a question with a question?

I have always associated equal length with twin scroll, I assumed they were a package

You can put equal length headers on single scroll.

If EL can be fitted to a standard turbo, I wonder why Subaru went with the unequal length?

Unequal is much easier and cheaper to run and package.

You also lose the distinctive Subaru burble with equal length headers which is part of their trademark and USP.

El will have less restriction, thus make more flow.

That classic flat 4 burble makes my daily commute to work that little bit more tolerable..

Even if equal length headers give more power and torque it wouldn't be worth losing it!
