Q: my back box has a hole in it. i can get a standard turbo back box for free just wondering if its a direct fit to my non turbo impreza sport. the mounts look the same. just wondering before i take the old one off.
A: If you have it in your hand you'll be able to tell better but I don't think it's a direct fit. I think one of the hangers need to be moved just a little and the flange to the cat pipe needs to be rotated a little. But I am going on my experience of putting my WRX exhaust on my friends non turbo Impreza. It could be different on the older models.
