ETS Downpipe or Cobb Downpipe ?

Help me out here guys.
Ets downpipe or Cobb downpipe which one should i get. Both products are good but the cobb is almost half the price is it because the Ets has a flex flange or is it just a better product

Not sure which ETS one you were looking at but they have the recirc and dump O2 eliminator pipes so this is where the added cost is.

^^ I don't think anyone here is buying a downpipe for sound levels, he's asking about power

Check out the MAP o2 elim downpipe too; similar in design to ETS' but at a lower price.

Also, the COBB piece does not replace the section that connects to the turbo. From what I have heard, you only want to do that one time because it is a PITA to get to.

As long as we are talking o2 elim DPs, TurboXS has one as well.
