It's got a full stainless straight through exhaust, filter and that's all I know lol.
I've got a few questions I need help with.
What colour and paintcode is it? It was red
How do I find out what engine it's got? as I was told it had wrx put in.
What is the difference with a wrx engine and the original engine?
Can the ecu be remapped? as I'm getting a fmic
How to identify the turbo?
What boost should it run? as it somtimes hits boost or fuel cut in 2nd gear 4k rpm
If you've taken the time to read this I thank you in advance for any help given.
Sorry for the newbie questions.

Hi there
You can check on colour code on the VIN Plate,here is pic how it looks VIN plate
WRX engines has been EJ205 Open deck block and but without the removing the engine,is hard to tell,yes you can check if its have cross hatching
What year is your WRX,if its MY99 should be no problem get your car mapped via EcuTek if its older ESL,Apexi Power FC,SimTek or Syvecs will be choice,all depends on your budget
Turbo you can identify only when you are remove the TMIC,but WRX usually has been equipped with TD04
Standard WRX should run around 0.6-0.8bar on TD04,if has been not mapped for those mods,this can be problem(and can end in tears) and due this you can have this boost cut and other problems.
