That's a tough one right now.
So many combinations so easy to up the boost.
But I am adding injector options to the kits.

When I get a kit I plan to have a 3.5" DP with an electric cutout. Past that it will be 2.5" and stock exhaust. I want quiet when I am not killing.....

4" turbo back with side exit through the rear passenger side bed before the tire. It is hard to do side exit with a 4" exhaust if you're lowered. 3" will hit speed bumps let alone 4. The side bed exit also has its draw backs because I had to route between the frame and the leaf. If I hit a big bump, it'll squeeze the pipe lol. I have a 5" tip on it only because I had it sitting around.

It is also really hard to have full exhaust if you're lowered. my 6" flip kit leaves all of 2" between the bump stop and the bottom of the bed. I'd hate to run it under the axel too.

Either way, I like it. It is super duper quiet. I run open wastegate dumps so it sounds good when it needs too.

Muffler - Dynomax Ultra Flo Welded Mufflers 17557

If you're serious about building a kit, look at 2 bolt 1/2" flange connections. something like this bastard http://vibrantperformance.com/catalo...oducts_id=1254

You wouldn't need stainless, mild would be fine. If you're going to make a run you can get a laser shop to cut these pretty cheap. Import 4" exhaust (greddy for instance) always use 2 bolt flanges. The work great.

v-bands, sleeve clamps and u-bolts are all crappy. V-bands you can never position right. Sleeve clamps always leak and loosen. u-bolts sometimes leak, but you can never take the exhaust apart after you pinch the slip connection.

Love the exhaust boostedsl2!! I'm going to get that muffler! Will be running a cutout for when its time turn heads. I've been looking for a non restrictive muffler that's quiet. Looks like I finally found one.
