Not without raising the engine or the whole car. The turbo on the FA20 WRX mounts to the manifold under the block so you would have to run no undertray and hope nothing you drive over rips your turbo off.

Additionally, a common power mod on the FA20 WRXs is to swap to our intake manifold. Using the WRX intake manifold on these cars would therefore be counterproductive. Not to mention you would need custom intake piping as the WRX's throttle body mounts to the rear driver's side of the manifold.

There is AVO if you want something similar to WRX OEM configuration.
