Default Front mount guys W/ diesel exhaust

Do any of you guys with front mount turbos and a diesel 4" exhaust have any pictures of the exhaust installed? Just wondering what all is required to do so. Just trying to decide exactly what i want to do. I have everything setup for a blower engine and tranny wise but... Just want to explore both sides before deciding. Either a Tvs2300 or a front mount 76mm.

I just used a tail pipe and muffler so I just brought that to the exhaust shop and had him make a 3" mid pipe from the downpipe to the 4" muffler. This winter Ill make a 4" downpipe and 4" mid pipe.

Only looking for like 9-12lb boost normally, i may go a bit higher once in awhile but for the most part just a strong street setup. If i go turbo i want something that spools fast, looking for a nice broad tq curve to get this tank moving. I know my cam is not the best for a turbo with 11 degree exhaust bias.

Sorry no pics, but I did the MBRP set up. Bet they are all the same though. I purchased the system that was close to the same year, and it was an Ex-cab.
Lots of pipe was not used. lol
anyway it was a straight shot, just had to change the hanger clamps to fit the shorter trucks profile and locations. Simple mig welded and cut off wheel and you can be done in about 2 hours.
With Headers and a Y pipe, you would have to cut more off the first straight leg.

You will need an expanded joint. To go from your exhaust to the 3.5 or 4" stuff. You can find those at any diesel shop that does mufflers.
