I was thinking of replacing the stock downpipe and replacing it with a aftermarket.
From what i have read, the ebay specials are not that great. what I am thinking is keepint the stock and not worring about it cracking or having to remove the sensors to put them in a new downpipe. Really, how much power will I gain? --------------------  |

assuming you are doing a 3sgte swap with the stock turbo, then there a few downpipe options that are "off the shelf" ready. The most cost effective is probably Berk. The other very good 3" option is Aussie. Also, KO racing makes a 2.5" one that I would probably buy (because I am over 30 and the 3" is noticably louder). Make sure you get it ceramic coated if you don't get stainless.
Also, I think 20 hp is a bit optimistic. I would say more like 7-8hp with a 2.5" and 8-10hp with a 3" at 15psi.
