Some new mufflers may be the next mod .....
IMO it sounds good.
Might need to think about some ear plugs though for the baby.

it would be similar but not as throaty or deep imo.
the extra 1/2 litre makes a lot of difference.

Its not the half a litre, its the two extra cylinders... You could not replicate that sound with a 4 cylinder.

Got it in one "fastest Liberty on WRX Club track days" doesnt mean its the fastest out there.. its just the fastest that happened to be there on that day.. not having a stab, but in pure potential the EJ20T has far more capability.. as with all things there is always a time and place for everything, times when the NA 3L is going to be better than the 2l/2.5l turbo, but in all round driving especially when modified I'd take the turbo
personal preference though

NA is generally better for track work but I like the turbo for street.
