Well its "preferable" to have a flexi Ive heard, obviously there are a hell of a lot of RSTs running around on non flexi mongooses but I believe that this can cause damage to the turbo elbow in a few cases due to engine movement,

Standard pipes dont. As bove, you can get a flexi for a mongoose, check the for sale section EssexBoyRacer is selling one Failing that you can get them from magnex new as I had to replace mine, was a good £90 tho IIRC
