I second tlclee's idea that is a very pricey part sell it on nasioc then just buy a new dp or even a used one off this forum

At the same time, there's a WRX/STi owner posting in a Subie forum asking, "Does this downpipe look right to you?" while holding your Evo dp!

Definitely a noticeable difference. Probably an honest mistake though. Hope you called them already.

Most likely hitting the sub-frame.
It's been covered on this forum before.
Time for a hammer :P
