Like I have said, the sr20det downpipe will replace from the end of your header to your resonator. It will remove the cat, and a couple feet of piping. You could honestly bolt uo the 3" sr20det downpipe to your STOCK motor, and gain power from not having a cat. Since the sr20det downpipe is that close, you could cut off the flange from your header and weld that to a steel custom downpipe. Then figure out where the pre-fabbed exhaust systems start from. If they start at the resonator, you're set. Then you cut off the muffler, sell it on Ebay as new, and get one you want welded up. That is what I'd do if I honestly couldn't grow to like an exhaust.
On that note... why do you need flex pipe and where would it go? Flex pipe would cause a lot of backpressure and generally suck for the turbo.
Finally... I have $190 in the exhaust side of my turbo (no exhaust system, but turbo dp and sr20det downpipe). With another $400, I could get a lot of exhaust systems via groupbuys, and have 3" turboback exhaust for only $75 more than a custom "who knows what you'll get" exhaust.

Well the muffler and the high flow carsound cat cost me $100 altogether.
I was really thinking about doing what you were advising. But what would be the price of the the cheapest catback system with 2.5" piping and a muffler that isn't angled? I have a dual outlet muffler and i want it coming out straight just like the stock one.
As for the flex pipe, that was exactly what i was asking. Now he said it costs $150, so subtract that from $525 and we are at $375. Now that's $225 cheaper than what you will end up with, but i'm willing to spend that money for a performance exhaust if i like the way it looks.
