Significant Technical Input Registered SVX
The only car that you can retain the stock SVX rear diff is a 2002-2005 WRX
Which have 3.90's in them, but a reduction of 1.1:1 to the rear so they run a 3.54 rear diff like the SVX....

the 98 Legacy manual will bolt up, and will either be a 3.90 or a 4.1 and will require swaping the rear diff gears.....get the numbers off the housing by the starter and look it up.
