To be honest you cant go wrong with down pipes, the only thing you will pay more for from say hayward and scott is the very nice tig welding,which will last longer.
All i wouls say, which i am sure you know, is make sure you go for the open mouth type.Personally also i would get a decent set of gskets from roger clarke.
You will need the one at the turbo end and also the flange end that meets the centre section.
If your fitting down pipe yourself, give all down pipe to turbo studs and bolts a good spray of WD40 a day or 2 before you do it. Dont want a snapped stud.
Good man that helps, sorry i get really confused as ive never changed anything but a back box on previous cars!
The search is on but i dont want to cock anything up before germany!!!
