Anyone looking to get the FMS Uppipe, I would definitely recommend it. There are a few small details you need to keep in mind before installing however. Make sure you have OEM or Grimmspeed gaskets. I installed the gasket that came with it for the uppipe to turbo, and it blew out less than 1000 miles later. see:

Also, make sure you have the provisions to cut a decent amount off the top of the two most rear studs. If they are left not trimmed, you can not install the downpipe. they won't clear. Another thing to note, is the plug that is in the EGT hole needs to be tightened if you aren't using a sensor in the hole. mine fell out on the way home. For less than $100 shipped with a coating it really can't be beat.
