Default Up pipe - solid or flexi??

I know this has been asked before, but I am struggling to sell my solid XS power up pipe. I was hopeing to replace it with a slip jointed pipe.

Scooby clinic advised against fitting a solid up pipe as they say they've had problems - so what's the answer?

Anyone running solid up pipes? I remember reading something about Prodrive up pipes being solid - is this true?

I'm tempted to give it a go as the pipe is just sitting around here.

I thought about buying the flexi TSL up pipe......then bought the solid H&S one instead.
