PDE Uppipe and Downpipe????
What are the average prices on the PDE uppipes and downpipes?
Is the flex pipe better?
Just would like to know some pricing before ordering.
Oh yeah and off the topic....
Cusco Zero 1 Coilover? Are they worth the price or should i look for some better ones?
Thanks

Searching usually gives you the best answer. Prepare to get flame for asking these questions.
1) For PDE... ask Ryan @ Vakamon... he knows them the best.
2) There's a debate on flex up-pipe vs. non flex. I prefer non-flex caz the construction is one piece and it's stronger. But I think it's personal preferrence... do some research and reach your own conclusion.
3) For the coilovers, you need to know what you are planning to do w/ your car. Auto-X? Drag?? Or Show? Cusco is stiff (Go w/ Zero 2s but... might not be too comfortable for daily driving) Of course, they're worth the price.
Good luck.

As Luktang mentionned above, make sure you have a suit against "flaming."
You can also use the reviews section or other forums such as nasioc.com or scoobymods.com for further research.

ok since you have your flame suit on... LOL
you've been here (on this board) for a while now even though you don't post much so you should know like all the OTHER n00bies that you need to do a search before asking a question that have been asked repeatedly and answered repeatedly by the other n00bies.
The review section would be good to look at for what people think of them...
That being said...
PDE it is really preference as Chucky stated
However there is one big difference between the two. The flex pipe was made so that it will be able to move and shift with engine movement thus causing less chances of a up pipe leak. It is debatable to say if one is better than the other since we do NOT have a AWD Dyno on the island (again something that has been covered numerous times).
Pricing you can do a search... Also probably found in the reviews section or on other Subaru performance part sites.
Regarding your coilover "ISSUE"
you're asking a very generalized question to very many people. as stated by chucky... what is the purpose of your purchase? Do you intend to use them or do you just buy things just to say I have this on my car but only drive 3 miles down the road.
Also if you're going to ask people questions regarding coilovers or anything you'll need to know the plan for your car before you ask people since it will determine what group of people you ask questions to. If you are GOING to do auto-x...etc. do NOT ask someone that just does car shows or lives 3 miles away from his/her working place they will have no idea how the coilovers "feel" like.
the car you have will determine what is available and the pricing of the product. I'm assuming since you are asking about an up pipe that you have a WRX of some sort.
