On an R32, Mine's offered an equal length down pipe back in the 90s. It goes way way back before that, nothing new about it.
It's different in that it's adding additional piping, bends, and weight relative to an unequal-length setup. Can you elaborate on how this would improve performance over an equivalent, unequal-length setup? If there are performance benefits, that obviously changes things.

Since you mentioned the AA mid section, I believe that cuts weight and adds a little power (so not just for sound), not to mention it saves having to cut your stock exhaust to change out the droopy rear section. Having said that, I personally prefer to leave emissions equipment (primary/secondary cats) in tact, so I probably will remain stock or just get an axle back. I'm probably not in the target market for this, so just my $.02.
