BTM or 4inch why go 4inch

if the BTM will flow 80 % of a turbo back 4 inch exhaust why not just use the BTM? sounds like the exhaust temps are about the same with both.

i have been happy with my btm... for the money i think it is worth using this setup until the rest of the exhaust rots out... then get the 4 inch...!

5" Is the only way to go,,and the sound is like nothing else,, Much deeper tone than the 4".

Does anyone make 5" exhaust for an OBS truck? I have a 3" DP, cat delete and BTM for the moment, but I would like to eventually put a complete system on my truck.
