Hi all, I’m looking into putting UEL headers on my 08 N/A Liberty. Does anyone know if it’s possible on the these models?

Iv seen people on YouTube putting stock wrx headers on. If so are they direct bolt on? If someone can confirm this or knows of any other options that would be great thanks.

Interim thoughts from me before the more experienced people chime in:

- The headers part should bolt on ok (same sized engine with same exhaust port spacing and all that)

- You probably need to work out what to do at/after the merge because stock UEL headers from a turbo model of that era will want to send the merged exhaust upwards to a turbo that sits near the brake booster. A good exhaust shop can probably give you a quote on work to adapt things. Alternatively, there might be off-the-shelf UEL headers for NA subarus that will either exactly meet your requirements or take less modification to make it work (eg your exhaust shop can work with aftermarket stainless rather than OEM cast iron)

Here’s my research on the subject:

Iirc that’s jdmsubielover’s car, he has a member profile post here too.

If you have a denso maf, chances are you can have the car tuned as well.
