Post Boxer engines share same header setup for turbo GT86

Hello I was wondering if there were any Subaru engines that have a similar exhaust setup that I can install a turbo from a used manifold. Will all I need for a entry setup is a turbo, (“idk”WHAT connects directly to it?) BOV filter, the part for intake! Then a down pipe that goes to over pipe. Planning to keep intercooler oem. Does that seem like a “complete” setup that’ll stay running as I add to? I’ll need a tune I assume I have open flash maybe suggest??

yep, just need to widen the front frame rails, tweak the hood height and the entire fa20t from the new wrx drops right in.

The exhaust manifold and J-Pipe on turbo FA engines goes the opposite direction. On an engine stand, easy. In the car, not so much.
