Question Will a Classic Impreza Prodrive exhaust, downpipe, etc fit on a MY00 Forester Turbo?

Can anyone tell me if this will be a straight fit? Or won't it fit at all?

Thanks in advance,
Mark.

It will all fit but the rear box is a bit short for the rear bumper and if too close it will melt it.
Either bend the hanger down to move the back box further away from the bumper/ put metal sheeting under the bumper lip or buy a proper Forester back box such as the H & S version.

Thanks Nick!

So just to confirm, downpipe, etc will be a straight bolt-on, but rear-box will cause an issue?

Thanks,
Mark.

Yes, the DP and centre section will fit without any problems, the rear box will also fit but may cause the bumper problem.

I can confirm that its only the back box that will be a problem due to it not being long enough, every thing else is

Check out the Europe section of www.subaruforester.com for more info

Thanks guys!

Pity the Forester owner has now pulled out of the sale. Reckons that he's going to get a custom zorst built to meet his requirements. Oh well...
