ZZP pipes are low cost and pretty effective. They use the stock rubber couplers but you can buy silicone ones from them for it as well.

Make sure you get a CP thats one piece and not multiple pieces held by clamps and couplers. The more couplers/ clamps you have, the more risk of boost leak you have and that will drive you crazy when you have one lol.

I have Dejon. They were pretty cheap and good quaility. You don't need the cold side. Flow over there is good.

Many have replaced the Injen couplers with longer couplers, so I would figure the price of new couplers in, if you're going to buy the Injen pipe. Cold side does not need to be replaced.
