up pipe question

Hey guys, has anyone heard of Bay Motorsports? I found an up-pipe made by them. If not, what are some good brands that make up-pipes? I know fittment can be an issue so can anyone recommend good quality up pipes that are known to have the least known amount of problems with fittment?

Thanks, also my budget is for anything lower then 150. Used is fine with me.

Here is another which is most likely the same company. Op was referring to "Bay Motorsports" while this ebay seller is called "Bayson R Motorsports". Remove the son and the R, guess what you have.

You switching headers or staying with the stockers? If your staying with the stockers then you might as well remove the up-pipe and use a pry bar to gut the cat in the oem up-pipe. May need a long pair of needle nose pliers, not sure if the up-pipe cat has the screen mesh in it. If it does then you will also need to pull it out....

STi up-pipes don't have the cat or the sensor.

no i don't plan on changing headers. well the cat thing is no problem, i have an AP Vers. 1 to take care of the check engine light. I'm looking to buy an up pipe, if i'm gonna be goin through hell just to remove it might as well replace it.
