Will fabricating a bigger downpipe cause even more boost creep?

Tuning has nothing to do with boost creep. Its involves flow of the internal wastegate which unfortunately is limited in its stock size.

Man when did the price of these kits jump up so much? I remember when they were ~$4k or so, and now Im getting all these $5k+ numbers. At that price I just dont see this as a good deal anymore.

Price jumped for all on June 1. Many vendors were letting people know that you needed to get in before June 1 before it jumped 1G in price.

They are charging 5 grand now?

That takes it completely out of the equation.

From what I have seen Greddy has increased prices on a few other items too, BOV's etc. Cost of materials must have gone up some?
