April 25, 200718 yr Quick hypothetical question: could an up pipe (header) made for the WRX 2.0 be made to work on the EA82T? I already realize the EJ is a two port whereas the EA only has one port per side. But if the points where the manifold MOUNTS are in the same position...........heehee, break out the torch boys... idea behind hairbrained scheme is simple: there are plenty of cheapo ones available on eGay, and it may be simpler and cheaper in the long run to simply modify the EJ piping for the EA than to have another custom one made (@ average $$ of over $500!?!)
April 26, 200718 yr Techworks Header for an EA82T with a modified flange to put either the stock IHIRB5 turbo on it or upgrade to a TD04... $400
April 26, 200718 yr Author Techworks Header for an EA82T with a modified flange to put either the stock IHIRB5 turbo on it or upgrade to a TD04... $400 yes, i already contacted TWE...they have one left of the group-buy production run they did, and they're asking about $500 for it; they have no plans to do anymore... a bit on the steep side for me at the moment.

Well it would be the easiest route besides having one custom made. Trying to make one fit from an EJ20 will be more problematic then its worth IMHO. Due to the actual physical size differences between the EJ20 and the EA82T, it'll require someone with some patience and awesome fabrication skills in order to get it to the point of working. Then you have the exhaust side of the turbo to thinnk about too. Get the turbo too high and the downpipe won't fit and get it too low and it'll hit the ground. That and side to side as well....
