I run a single CAT-back and really like it... There are some small fit issues (hanger rods too short, angles off by a degree or two), but nothing 10 minutes of time didn't overcome. I strongly recommend that you install it with the eye of a craftsman, but then check everything for fit/angle/droop after about 500 miles... Mine settled and required a subtle refit, but it's been great ever since. From whom will you purchase?

Mine is turbo back. IMHO cat back is worthless. Cut that cat off and keep it for a rainy day at the dealership. I got the 5'' dual wall stainless tip and i think it looks good and not overdone.

Better yet, keep the cat intact and use a test pipe while your not "required" to run the cat.

i have single outlet. It is 3.5 inch pipe from the turbo and expands to 4'' at the elbow right past the bottom of the firewall. I have read that you dont really need a 4'' downpipe unless you are making big power. It would make the install a little bit more complicated with a 4'' downpipe. 3.5 slides in nicely and does not rub the firewall.
