I would go with the downpipe first to help relieve some of that back pressure.

I second that notion.

Not only will the downpipe give you an increase in hp it will also help your engine and turbos last longer.

Thumbs up
Everyone will tell you to get the downpipe, including me. If money is a little bit of a problem, you can just buy these pieces used. If you want to buy them from a shop try www.importcircuit.com They have awesome prices in there.
