It is longer than the OEM DP so the stock SS exhaust will have to be shortened if used with a WRX DP.
sounds like i could get away with using my STI axel back without shortening anything.

I have the HKS downpipe, got it for 100 used...quality is great, and its not chrome. Only thing is that it doesn't have the bolt which attaches to the transmission, has anyone just had one of these welded on or just left it unbolted?

If you want a open w/g dump you will probably have to make it yourself using the stock D/P flange.

Road-Race-Engineering makes a raw flange ready to be turned into one of these, but it is for the 4g63 o2 housing.

Or you could buy Spitfire999's HKS downpipe and have a tube welded on that dumps into the atmoshpere? It would be harder to do on a bellmouth or divorced WG housing DP but much simplier on the HKS piece, it would look similar to the pic you posted except in coated carbon steel not SS.
