Default Bolt On Compatibility... both xA and xB?

I've become confused with some websites. Bolt ons, like intakes, stress/sway bars, exhausts, headers, etc, ...are they all compatible with both the xA and xB? Some sites will say xB only or both xA/xB while others just say xA/xB yada yada yada...

I don't want to get an xA and find out I can't use half the stuff they have out there (minus exterior dress up, of course)...

I'm looking at intakes, exhausts, springs, strut/sway bars, and short shifters for right now...

clue me in!

The intakes are hit and miss, since it is factory the AEM is available, Injen's is supposedly available in 2 weeks, the Blitz is a universal type fit and does work... the rest I am not to certain about.

Exhaust wise is another toss up one, I have Stylis as my exhaust, brake, suspension guy, and he put a lot under there but definitely PM him if you have a specific question and he can compare it on my xA..

springs, struts and swaybars are macthed for our cars since the sub frame is the same. The reason the others are a bit different between the xA and xB is due to the difference in Vertical room for everything is modified (especially in the engine compartment) to create the compact xA...

short shifters is an unknown still, from just average testing it seems the xA has a modified shifter in order to accomodate a compact interior and it seems shorter in 1-3rd versus a stock xB and even a a short throw seems about the same in those gears, I myself am interested in the short throw for the xA but the conflict of information has prevented me take the dive..

hope this helps,
