Well, no. Not really.
...okay, kind of. But if I were one of the engineers designing these engines, I think I would probably change a lot of things on the heads and pistons, and because of that, Frankensteining parts doesn't often work out.
So what exactly are you trying to say? That the pistons are not the same? I could swear i remember someone checking part #s at a dealership and finding that they are the same part numbers for both pistons. I think i remember that but if someone can tell me otherwise, you got me pegged.

Now that I think fo it, the 2.2 might even have a different stroke than the 3.3, but that i am also not sure of. I need to dig into my mitchel CD again and check it out. Someone who works at a Subie dealer needs to do some homework and put this dispute to a rest.
