A buddy has struggled with those and ended up going solid pipe, but it was on the crossover-pipe from driverside.
On the exhaust pressure side I went with a double slip connector from Burns Stainless. On the downpipe and wastegate pipe I have the Vibrant ones, but made sure they didn't have any bends as set up, the inner liner can vibrate if bent. I didn't use a flex joint on my last build and by the time a few heat cycles had occurred I had to pry the pipe to line it up to the wastegate when assembling.
