It will be very difficult to explain to you where the uppipe is since its really tucked in there but to best explain it...
The uppipe connects the turbo to the exhaust manifold. Basically, the "flex" end of the uppipe will connect to the turbo while the longer end will connect to the exhaust manifold. If you go underneath the car, you will see it and you can either do it from the top on underneath the car.
Be prepared for problems though. Its one of the more painful installs for the WRX but will give you a big smile. Make sure you expect the worse, give alot of time for the install and get new gaskets.
