Lower intercooler pipe. Everything after that gets more expensive for the hp gained.

Cat replacement (test pipe or HFC), LICP, and MBC. What is an up-pipe?

An up-pipe is definitely worth it for a boxer engine.

Then please change your first post, because it just says "Dejon Tool." Dejon makes more than MBCs, so change it to state that it's a Dejon Tool MBC. Also, change your up-pipe question to say "upper intercooler pipe."

No, you don't need a UICP, but you do need the other mods I listed: cat replacement (HFC or test pipe) and LICP.
