The engine is completely different, but the header will work.
Almost all EJ headers are interchangeable (except the single port EJ25's of olden times). The WRX and STi headers will both fit your car. But you need the engine crossmember from a WRX, to be able to fit the Uppipe. As far as the engine itself, no, your engine isn't even close to the STi in terms of internals, or design. But the headers WILL swap over. |

Thanks Phil.
I was too lazy to get into the whole crossmember thing because he obviously needs to do some research on his own. |
