A Subaru Crosstrek was successfully fitted with a WRX engine without requiring any modifications, as all components bolted directly into place. This engine swap was possible because the Crosstrek and WRX share the same platform. The process involved transferring the WRX's engine, transmission, and rear subframe. The builder also modified body panels and intends to further enhance the vehicle's performance beyond its current doubled horsepower.
