Uppipe?

Okay so I finally decided to go with a turbo back exhaust, but I still need to decide on an uppipe, since to I'm gonna have to pull the downpipe to install the new one, so I figure might as well do the uppipe while I'm at it. So just wondering what upppipe you guys have on your car, and which would you suggest for my 05 WRX?

Thanks Hommies!

Crucial huh?

Are there big differeces in the different upppipes? from what I understand the downpipe and exhaust will net a big gain in horsepower, and the aftermarket uppipe will help the turbo to spool up faster. Where can I get Crucial.

Thanks!

I got a Helix. It's good but don't ask me to compare because I have only had this on my car, no other brand.
