09 straight pizzzipes?

greetings,
so ive been doing my nightly google research on WRXs with straight pipes and i came to the conclusion that its "budget" enough that i can take a shot at it.
so what i was looking for (if possible) is a list of sites or info on the catback set-up. a good friend of mine is a master welder and happens to have a pipe bender at our disposal (not to mention a LOT of beer, ).
im going to stop by my local shop tomorrow and get a quote on some 3inch pipes; if theyre cheap enough i'll probably just buy them and schedule a time to start the project.
any info on the sedan Y-pipe setup would be extremely useful.

thanks again
buGS

just make it a single exit exhaust but chose a side you want it to exit and just use your oem catback as a guide for where you should put your piping...

i thought about doing that and maybe filling the empty exhaust gap with a toe hook or something. if i do go that route, i'd consider a 4" piping...

o no doubt, i have the equipment to mic up a good audio bite as well...

thanks. as of right this second everything's moving a little slower on the project build. i think it has to do with the crappy weather in NH lately. but no fear hopefully i'll make some progress this weekend....
