I recommend Crucial Racing Downpipe, it ceramic coated to reduce resoak & its a perfect fit.

The HKS downpipe is the worst designed downpipe on the market for internally gated turbos. For externally gated turbos its perfect, its cheap.

The DPE downpipe tapers down to fit the stock catback. It even allows you to use the stock donut. You will need to use AP or other EM to resolve boost creep issues if you run a downpipe. Good luck.

I highly recommend the Cobb downpipe.
It will bolt up fine with the stock catback exhaust.
Installing a aftermarket less restrictive catback exhaust
will free up some power.
