I have one... Have to look in the Shed, I have to Run the Stock Turbo in my class so I don't see the need for the 3" Pipe plus the flange on the 3" is a PITA Right off the Turbo...
The pipe is so big that it is impossible to use regular hex head bolts so the supplier used Allen heads.. Then one loosened up and the Ex Air Escaping melted my AOS and consequently my Trackday was cut short... I used the factory downpipe then went to to 4" …. Works well....I know I have the Flange off the Turbo and have to look for the Rest of the downpipe..
The Aftermarket one is the one that has the header wrap on it... This pic is the Fab work I did on the Factory Downpipe, The WG Now Dumps into the 4" section. (Wasn't fully done when I snapped the pic)

From your photos it looks like they go from 3" then 4"?

Well the 3" one Does but I didn't like the way it Dumped the WG into the smaller portion of the pipe so I made another one (the shiny one) … Anyhow... I installed V bands so I can run a side exit that I made or run the Full Ex all the way out the back... Problem is when I put the side Exit on I pretty much need earplugs... Man is it loud..
