Yep the up-pipe is from the headers to turbo. Not sure if yours will have a cat (I think it wont). Mine certainly has (02 WRX)

No Cat in your up-pipe, mainly new generation 2001 onwards wrx models have them.

A mistake people often make is fitting a much larger up-pipe, this will increase spool times not reduce it. OE up-pipe is fine on your car so leave as is. Unless of course you wanted to fit ported headers.
