What's the orientation, rear or side exhaust? And looking from the back of the car, which side does the pipe need to be on?

You do have a problem, that's a difficult combination.

Header, ok, no probs, you can make any semi circular header work. As for pipes, anything that fits the HPI RS4 evo should do the job (they are also right sided). The trick as always is making sure the pressure nipple is on the topside of the pipe (or at least ont he side in the case of universal pipes, which of course are never very good). I had a look around, but I cound;t find anything particularly good. Maybe look around and see if you can get an actual pipe from an RS4 evo or a spare part replacement.

Personally, I'd go with these to get it up and running, and then spend some time researching and waiting to find a really good pipe with the right characteristics. It'll run fine with these cheap items though, trust me. Please note, I confidently BELIEVE that those are what you need, but if you buy them and they don't fit, please don't hold it against me.
