I would assume so, but thats a question for the tuners...

PS: i know ppl are going to say oh no ithe subarus sound like that because its a horizontally opposed engine......and no....it doesnt.......you can put equal lenth headers on a STI and it will sound pretty damn close to a CIVIC
I bought a GoPro HD, so there will be plenty of videos

Very tight fit! Other than the fact that Shawn prides himself in custom one-off builds, I believe another culprit to not mass producing anything is due to fitment issues.

And for the intake piping, it looks beautiful in person. Ideally, you'd want equal sized piping in equal lengths to come into a y-pipe and one pipe go into the intercooler, but Shawn had to work his magic with the little room in our engine bays. Based on his logic, with the different sized piping and different paths, it seems like it should be pretty even.
