I need a down-pipe!

So which one should I get? If you think I should get one that's not on the poll, say which one please.

I voted Vishnu, but the honest choice for me is anything with a divorced wastegate and relatively smooth flow lines. Also, at least 3". I say this based on the Garrett-turbo guys awesome thread.

For the WRX, the Vishnu DP had all that. Wait, so does mine!

Oh, forgot to add that I'd like to use the "stock" cat-back.

That's why I like the P.D.E so much. It mates up with all the cool cat-backs + the stock one, doesn't have a flat rear flange, and it has the O2/C.E.L cheater pipe on it, I like that.

But it's not a bellmouth type down-pipe.

The 'not mating up to any old pipe' problem is one that I'm dealing with. Right now it's a non-issue, but sometime in the future I may try a different muffler and that is going to require a shop to do some cutting/welding. Still, muffler work is pretty cheap (relative to engine or suspension work).

If you ever want to try out the BPM, my offer still stands. We'll take an afternoon and tear it up.

Perrin! Off to the expensive side but has design and detail to match the price.

I think you should give the TurboXS turbo-back a try......I may consider it somewhere down the road....but I gotta hear it first. Not sure if I can handle the excessive sound levels people talk about

(alright that was a little selfish of me....haha)

Whatever you choose, I'd probably like to check it out sometime.
