Non turbo classic exhaust back box replacement
Hello, finally the site I have been looking for, I wonder if anyone can help me?
I own a 1999 Classic impreza which is a 2.0i Sport - non turbo.
I will need to replace the back box on the exhaust soon and want to know if the turbo cars back boxes off the same age impreza's are compatible with the non turbo or are they a different size?
What options do I have for a replacement back box?
Sorry for my complete lack of technical knowledge. I am hoping someone will know more than me.
Many thanks for any help.

my friend had a 2004 gx sport and fitted the backbox off of a 2003 wrx, no problems at all, straight fit. apperently with some sport models the turbo cat back system (backbox, mid pipe) can fit the non turbo. the differences between the turbo exhaust are the unequal manifolds (sport has equal) downpipe (sport doesnt have turbo just comes from engine) and i am not sure about the 2nd cat? sorry for the vague describtion. if your thinking of buying one, try and get the buyer to fit it, there and thenm so you dont buy one that doesnt fit.
