Up Pipes??
I've seen countless threads about these over the years, how would a person know that theirs needed to be replaced?

Visually: soot around the baby butt, or if severe enough all over the firewall, smokey, Mechanically: feel of the pants power reduced, low boost and exhaust leak noise.

In addition to above, if they are original they are 87.3% likely to be leaking.

Do you have boost numbers to share?
