greddy dp replacement- ARTech or Begi?
Now that I'm committed to ridding myself of the stock downpipe... is there a good reason to go one way or another?
Begi offers theirs in either mild or stainless, not sure what ARTech offers though. Begi's is only available in 2.5, ARTech is available in a 3" but I don't think I'd really need a 3" dp at this point.
Can anyone comment on fitment of either?
Only other mods to the greddy kit will be FMIC, emanage blue, 360cc or so injectors, and full 2.5 exhaust. I'd like to shoot for around 200 reliable whp with this setup (I wouldn't be surprised if the manifold fails at some point though).
Thanks again all. Looking to get back into the turbo miata groove.

If you want to make parts that are near the turbo and downpipe live a while, you've got to fight off the radiation (look at your turbo in the dark after a hard run and you'll see what I mean). The "macrame silver foil cloth stuff" is the right tool for that job.

id go with 3 inch from artech, he makes stainless steel, could probably go with mild steel if you asked him it might be a little less but ss is the way to go. i have artech dp and i put reflective wrap around the heater lines and also a reflective pad thing on the brake reservoir.
more pieces (begi) could be more prone for leak and more annoying to install.
