An STi engine swap might be a bit easier in a WRX than a TS.
Some extra stuff might need to be done on the TS...e.g....if it has no scoop on the bonnet for the intercooler.
Of course, you have to figure out which car you're working on......most of the average joes can't tell a WRX from a TS.

I am guessing the following:
Different are: turbo, injectors, heads and ecu
Similar are: Harness, block, Air intake, engine size (excluding U.S. 2.5)
Bolt for bolt-I don't see why not
Jack for Jack- I don't see why not
am I right?

Why don't u just mod the wrx engine? A vf39 turbo, front mount intercooler, 750cc injecters, high volume fuel pump vcs semi decked head along with some other goodies will have u moving, once tuned properly will make anywhere from 325-380..
