Welcome to SNet

I would have thought there would be an I/K available, the question really is WHY ? Not too sure if N/A models are the same, but turbo Scoobs have a habit of destroying their MAF sensors with I/K's, and yielding little or no more power in the process. Most go for a better aftermarker panel element. The STi replaceable paper one is supposed to be superb, along with Green, JR Racing and K&N lifetime filters. The induction system on a Scoob is really quite good, so there is little gain to be had regarding airflow, but there is a lot of power to be lost if your I/K is sucking in warm air from the engine bay. Many people also consider removing the resonator box from the inner wing to be a worthwhile induction mod.

Except buying a WRX/STi

Cheap and well worthwhile mod, and so simple anyone can do it themselves is to change the plastic rear droplinks for solid alloy/steel ones. After doing this it is wise to get a good geometry set-up done by a reputable company to Prodrives settings. The links are about £40 and are four bolts off/on without even jacking (although ramps make it easier), and a geo set-up can be from £40 upwards, just make sure whoever does it is aware of the settings you require.

Get saving for that turbo, always wave and get along to some meets and events
