I'm far from an expert on subarus but have you tried turning the manifold around?

That is an option but tends to bring the intake really close to the deck lid, with the air filter set up i have it wouldn't alow me to keep the deck lid closed. Mike.

There's alot more work in making new alternator mounts, rerouting all the sensors, cooling lines, fuel lines etc than making/buying a reverser.

Have you tried Customveedub in Stafford? I know they used to make them.

I'm just being lazy, should pull my finger out and do it my self. I'm pretty sure the new owner of custom off road is out of doing the subi stuff, it's certainly not mentioned on their web site anymore.
Your super sure has been an inspiration, i cant wait for the drastic increase in driveability.

Unless you enjoy welding pipe to flanges which sucks get a bought one if you can.

I ended up making 2 as my first one didn't clear the decklid spring, they're a PITA to make.
