I'd personally dodge that one in the link! Had a similar looking one a couple years ago from ebay and it lasted all of about 1500 miles and the flexi joint burst and in turn the turbo ate it and died instantly! Buy one with a slip joint or a sti one that doesn't have a cat like wrx's do! Even though a good hayward and scott type one will cost 3 or 4 times that, you won't have to replace a knacked turbo or more!

Slip jointed is the way to go, I believe - still can move but without the drawback of a flexi area breaking up...

don't use the one in the link unless you want to kill you spool up time, the bling bling ones have to large a bore to work properly, if you want a cheap fix get a used classic one or sti newage single scroll one, or alternatively get in touch with harvey smith he does dedicated up-pipes.
