Item details : "You Receive One Down pipe with gaskets and bolts". Someone's getting confused, or just lazy with the cut'n paste lol.
It includes gaskets as well so personally I'd be wary for that price. Subaru gaskets cost 20quid+ alone. Flexi pipes have also been known to leak at the flexi and it's not a quick job to change em.
All in all I personally would try find a second hand one (H&S / Magnex etc) with a slip-joint for a similar price, although I must say I havent bought one of these ones off ebay so its my opinion only.
There was a question on here a cpl weeks back asking about an up-pipe from a supplier on Ebay, and ppl seemed to think they were ok - It wasnt this one tho.
