Aftermarket Downpipe Suggestions

Looking to replace my stock unit.
I was thinking a stainless downpipe would be best, but can't seem to locate one. I'm told the 4" is too fat to fit without sledgehammering on the firewall, and that the 2-piece ones are easiest to install. Ones that neck from 3.5" to 4" are easier to install than the straight 4".
I found an aluminum one that came with optional ceramic coating, but it was really pricey and I'm not sure aluminum would hold up there (maybe it was aluminized steel...can't find that link again right now).

I was hoping to get a list of manufacturers of these pipes from folks that have done this mod on the 6.7L. Feel free to provide any details, prices, experiences or links.

I haven't really heard of anyone changing out their dp on a 6.7, most just do a dp back exhaust and call it a day.

acf6, thanks.
That's the one I came across during my last search. But it's $289+$50 for ceramic coating. Pretty expensive for a few feet of exhaust!
I also found one on Amazon, supposedly made of stainless by MBRP, but reviewers said it fit poorly, and they suspected it was not made by MBRP, but by a Chinese knock-off company (
MBRP FS9401 4" T409 Stainless Down-Pipe : Amazon.com : Automotive MBRP FS9401 4" T409 Stainless Down-Pipe : Amazon.com : Automotive
) only $115
Looking for more choices...anyone try one?
