Few quick updates.
Made a few purchases on NASIOC and SubaruForester.org.
As stated earlier, I snagged that STi Uppipe from a guy on NASIOC for $30
Checking out videos on the Youtubes for 2.5L cars with a catless DP and STi Catback. Trying to avoid the car from being too loud. With the catless uppipe and a catless DP, the exhaust system would only contain the factory resonator. EBAY Catless DP = $80-100, Catted DP = $350-400 new, try and find a used one.
Browsing the Forester forums I came across the extended arm rest for my car. This is something I wanted after driving a forester with the extended arm rest. It just gives you some place to rest your elbow when driving, along with added storage. Apparently the clips are broken that hold it shut, no bigge, I can try and fix it, and the lid is scratched up, but I can just re cover that with some Leather/Suede/Vinyl. New they go for $100-120. I got this for $30.

Also ordered a factory DIN pocket to go below my aftermarket single DIN radio. This has a lid, unlike the aftermarket DIN pocket. I usually stash my cell phone in the pocket below the radio, along with my IPOD. But when the go pedal is needed, they both typically launch out of the pocket and land conveniently between the console and the seat. So the door should alleviate that and I think it looks better.
Looks like this.
