I put a 3" downpipe just to clear the frame and 4" pipe the rest of the way. My mpg stayed the same. And no i am not driving it to hear the turbo.

dont replace the down pipe, straight pipe it all the way back
you will loose back pressure and use a bit more fuel but will indeed sound good, and you will be happy- people behind you will be sad!!haha roll coal buddy!
