I was wondering what would be a good choice of Downpipe to go with HKS Carbon TI for my STI. Anyone with a suggestion is greatly appreciated. Thanks. What is a Boost creep???

Does anybody have the Godspeed dp? If so, does it eliminate the mid-pipe cat? I'm either contemplating between this dp or txs stealthback.

perrin is nice... uses a separate dump tube with a diverter which sticks up into the turbo to separate the wastegate flow from the rest of the exhaust flow. the flanges are nice and thick too, 1/2 an inch to be exact. this could help prevent premature breaking of the welds and reduce any possibe warpage.... time will tell

Do you need to tune after putting on a helix downpipe? And which is better, helix or invidia?

Was wondering if the Japanese and US branded downpipe would fit both the JDM twin scroll and the US sti's?

both should be the same... anything with 3" bell mouth is great.
dp is not a problem, you should be thinking about wut kinda CEL fix you wanna get since CEL is the most annoying thing
