Best Uppipe?
I am going to be installing my EGT gauge sensor on my manifold and because I have to take it off of the car to drill and tap it I want to go ahead and put on a Uppipe while I have everything apart. I just don't know which one is the best. I want one that has a good fitment and that I don't have to mod to make it fit right. I don't know if I need to get a Uppipe with an EGT plug in it or not, and if not how do I stop from throwing a cel when I unplug the EGT sensor? Some of the Uppipe's I have looked at are the Perrin, PDE, STI, ect... Any help would be great.

Do I need to get new gaskets for Uppipe to Headers and Uppipe to Turbo? Also do I need to get new gaskets for the Header to the engine block when I take the headers off to mount my EGT sensor?

I think I may go with the Perrin Uppipe I found it for $220. It has no EGT plug and won't throw any cel's. If anyone has it please let me know how you like it.

Ok well I was looking at uppipes and I found this one the Crucial Racing Uppipe and I think I remember some people on the forums saying that it was really good. I think it's between the Perrin and the Crucial Racing. If anyone knows anything about the Crucial Racing Uppipe please let me know so I can make a decision.

Have the Perrin for about2 months now and all I have to say is 
But as I'm sure you have read....all uppipes serve the same purpose and are effective. It's about what price range your looking for. I got lucky and got it brand new for real cheap from a guy who just wanted to get rid of it...
Enjoy the quick spool up time
