Would need coilovers to lower the car a few inches. Springs you can lower up to about 2" with some Skunk2 springs but not really anymore than that. Will most likely wear out the shocks with that much of a drop as well so I would go with coilovers.

my buddy in a 06 wrx was on cut
springs and he swapped them out with some legit springs but
it was too late and the struts broke,

dont heat/cut springs, go legit and if money is tight go for ground coil overs
if your not tracking the car
