Of all the aftermarket pieces there sure seems to be a huge range of choices for this piece o' pipe. Most the problems that I have read are not with any one pipe at all. The problems that occur are often due to improper installation proceedures.
All that said I went with a Flex joint pipe from BPM. It was on sale for 225.00. Is the flex really needed? I dunno but the logic of it sold me........and the price was good.
I am no metallurgist nor engineer and have not been wrenching on turbo cars so I have very little arguing skillz

For the PAS with 2 bungs- I plan to cel fix with the 2.2 mil eliminator and not use the aftermarket EGT either, but if I put in an EGT I'd probably do it here knowing my numbers would be off compared to the manifold- but as long as they are consistent on the same vehicle I would be happy.

MRT Exhaust Feedback
From MRT,I recently purchased a 3" full turbo-back w/up-pipe and dual tipped muffler, exhaust sytems. Looks beautiful. Havent installed yet on my 03 wrx wagon. I was kinda talked into this system without really researching. After reading an overwhelming plethora of information in these forums im hoping i made a good choice, considering i was willing to spend the money on a "high quality system". Installation instructions were provided for the exhaust but none for the up-pipe. Also no bolts or studs were provided with up-pipe, can i use factory or should i buy stainless steel? Do most exhaust sytems come with new hardware and hangers? I e-mailed MRT over a week ago and no reply! So im wondering how good is MRT compared to other known"high quality" systems? Finally who has installed this system and what is your thoughts?? Thanx

Awaiting APS uppipe from www.thewrxstore.com. Should ship soon. Be jealous- I pre-ordered and got a hefty discount over current list. I'll fill in the install when it arrives. Will be going in at same time as invidia DP and Greddy Evo.
