I have a wagon, so no probs there. But if it's unbolted from the oe back box then I'd guess it'll fit no probs, with a back seat folded down? I'm guessing the seats fold down in a non wagon?

Seperated they will both fit ok, you might want to have something to wrap them in though as at the least you'll have to use the hatch for the centre section. Just take an old bed sheet for the centre section, though to be honest i'd just leave it with them if they'll have it.

yes the centre section will fit in your boot if you want to take it with you, if not we will happily scrap it for you.

Hi there,

I just de catted my 06 wrx with a system from the turbo back and I managed to get my while old system in the boot of my car. The sections are quiet small. Longest was a couple of feet.

Hope this helps.
