Either way, most 4" turbo back systems have a 3.5" down pipe, but OEM was 3". This is ID NOT OD! So if you measured 3.5 on the outside of you're down pipe, I have some bad news for you.
Next, my '03 had a 3" DP into a 3" RESONANTOR (about the size of a gas motor cat) into a 3.5" cat (that was removed before I bought it and Jones West Ford in Reno, NV somehow "missed" that detail, IN A SMOG COUNTY!!), then on to the tail pipe. The 6.0 cat is HUGE! So, if you have a 4" cat back like I did, save up $500 and buy a dedicated 4" turbo back system and DUMP what you have.
My exhaust is UGLY and I am considering replacing it with a true turbo back system. Although, given my lift, I have thought about having a local muffler shop make a straight pipe from my DP to bumper, straight, as in STRAIGHT over the axle, too.

karl you wont notice anything other than a much more difficult install....
Karl, back in the day, farmboy fab used to sell 4" tb's for $265 and 5" tb's for $295... but I've heard nothing good about their service the last couple years.
I know my local guy sells 4" systems for $300 cash in hand... they're out there.

You're comparing apples and oranges there when comparing a Power Stroke to a Cummins. I changed from a 3" to a 3.5" down pipe on my 6.0 and saw improvements.
