I do plan on buying an aftermarket turbo outlet and downpipe.

Actually I made a little thread on KA-T.org about the fitment issue on teh sr turbo outlet on a KA24DE(T), even over there nothing was clear and to the point baout what you needed to do.

Heres the link with some pics:

It's possible since the OE SR downpipe has more of a curve in it, plus it's smaller diameter, you'll clear the floorboard fine if you use it. I'm running all the SSA stuff too, the turbo outlet has no clearance issues with my GTi-R T28, and I think the aftermarket stuff has a wider path to clear the bellhousing anyway because there's lots of room. I also added a flex section into the back of my downpipe like one of those kids showed in that thread, you'll want to really drop the front end if you do that though because the flex section is a larger diameter, creating even more clearance issues. I ended up putting it a couples inches from the rear flange and then banging the floorboard up a hair where it starts to widen to clear the OE cat/resonator, it's fine now but the flex does drag on speedbumps/etc.
