I see you have stacks now, do you not have a complete system to the turbo now?

There is no reason to go duals other then looks. I have a dual MBRP system which fit fine and looks good, but I could care less at this point. A 4" single system will flow the same as a dual system...

4" is fine, there is no performance gain with a 5" system. I have been told the 5" kits sound a little deeper?

yes i have 5" and the sound is just noticeably different than 4"(and has more of what ive heard referred to as a jet engine sound, but really sounds nothing like a jet)... and like mentioned earlier duals arnt any better performance wise and cost quite a bit more. i went with 5" for the look of a large exhaust... but the looks is up to u, but with a 5" you have the same downpipe as a 4".... so thats y there is no performance gains
