really not important on test pipes as they don't weigh alot. It's more important that the flanges are welded correctly so nothing is tweaked while tightening them down

because some test pipes do crack

I hvae no experience with either of the above so I can't say

we offer Invidia, Turbo XS (old design had a bracket, new ones don't), Ultimate Racing and Ichiba - I've never had to replace any of them for a customer
