I don't think you can due to the impellor/turbo design plus of course the exhaust inlet and outlet designs are different to the unequal length headers as well.

As above don't worry about the burble, the twin scroll engine sounds brilliant with a decent exhaust system as well when giving it the beans.

There are two lengths of twinscroll downpipe, pre my05 which suits a classic length centre section and my05 onwards that suits a newage length centre section, earlier downpipe is one piece and later one is two piece with short link pipe same length as uk 2.5 cars, so just get the correct centre and downpipe and will have no issues.
