Default WRX 2nd cat (post downpipe) section fit forester SG XT?

Hi all, does anyone know if this will fit a facelift forester XT (2007). Given the similarities between them and the WRX I do wonder?

Cheers!

No.
The 2.5L Facelift Forester XT uses the same 2nd cat pipe as the Hawkeye Imprezas, in that the front joint is at the very base of the downpipe cat section and has an angled flange arrangement.

Both Scorpion versions (01-05 and 06-07) listed in this link (although the title isn't very clear)

Thanks Don!
aye, the flange is close to the cat for sure. Sorry, which link is the one I want? Hopefully the cheaper scorpion one? 😆

All three are for the 06/07 pipe.
For the Scorpion select the 06/07 option
