Re: Downpipe!
Depends on what you want.
I've seen posts of people very happy with the ones from e-bay in the 100-150 range. I personally wanted one with the flex sections. (st least the one between the engine and the catback. I went with the one from e2k development (e2kmfg on 3si.org's forumes) it was $265 shipped and the build quality is exellent.

Re: Downpipe!
I'm not a fan of hte ebay ones. Poor welds, and I've heard of some fitment issues. In the FAQ there is a comparison on downpipes that John Monnin wrote, which I think is great.
I got my ATR from 3sx for like $360, not cheap, but worth it IMO.

Re: Downpipe!
Well why spend more on a stock one, when you can get an aftermarket one that adds hp and is cheaper?

if your capable of getting rid of your cats/precats, get the stillen dp and gut your rear precat. Best downpipe IMO.

Re: Downpipe!
I expect the fact that the front and rear Y together rathers than T'ing would provide a bit of extra peformance. I have not installed it yet. So I can not be sure.
