Also fabbed up a new down pipe by cutting up a $150 part from ebay. It's a 3" bellmouth downpipe and it had all the bends I needed so under the knife it went. I cut off the bellmouth right where it meets the 3" pipe and cut out a couple of 90ish degree bends and put them all back together again. I did have to cut into the fender well a bit to make room but everything clears. An added bonus is that the borla muffler just slips right over the down pipe so i'll probably cut a small slit in the muffler pipe and clamp it on. That way if it's too noisy for some tracks I can slip on a super trapp.
