So we just picked up a Nameless CBE (working on making it TBE) but not sure what’s the best route to take.
I feel the COBB SF intake causes some lag in boost so an uppipe can help with that. I’ve also been reading that an EWG would also be beneficial - we want to eventually upgrade the turbo.
If we go catless dp, then we have to get an EWG uppipe right? And then obviously the wastegate.
Or would we fix the issue with a catted dp and a normal uppipe? We are looking to fix the lag and gain more power.
Any thoughts?

Justin did a EWG setup on his bugeye and I remember seeing an external wastegate on his uppipe so if you do go the EWG route then yes you would have to get an EWG uppipe and you would need the wastegate. I forgot what brand he used but I think invidia makes one. I don't like using grimmspeed because I don't trust the flex joint lasting too long.
With my old 04 STI, I went with borla UEL headers, invidia catless up pipe, and a cobb TBE and I believe the cobb downpipe was catted.
As for intakes, for a short ram, Anthony recommeded KSTech and it worked well for me.
I've read somewhere on nasioc that using a catless downpipe can cause boost creep but I'm not sure if thats been proven depending on parts you use or due to human error. If you get a hold of Anthony, he usually can recommend the parts or the better route.
