Summit Racing sells the Magnaflow 4" aluminized for about $350 or so... I've heard good things from people running them.

If you really like the exhaust sound now just leave it if it aint hurting anything, or you could just get some pipe and run it out at a 45 from the pipe you have on there now.

That's what I thought. I get confused by wording sometimes. I'm better off seeing it. LOL

Thanks for all your help. I'm gonna check the shop here as I've only heard good thing about them.

I just ordered my exhaust system today from The Power Shop. I was going to get the 4" turbo-back mbrp with the cat delete for $285 shipped to my house, but when i was talking to the guy he recommended the Diamond eye system. It was the same price but I guess they use a thicker guage pipe so it is more durable and lasts longer than the mbrp. Plus the Diamond eye has a stainless steel muffler and the mbrp did not. I asked about how it would sound too because I know alot of people like the mbrp and I had never heard the diamond eye, but he said they sound the same so we will see. I thought that price was very reasonable so it might be worth it to get whole new system. It will be in next week. Can't wait

Right now I just have mine coming straight back from the downpipe with 4" pipe and a 90* elbow exiting in front of the rear tire.

Sounds good, cheap and easy. I do have a 4" glasspack on it because NC requires a muffler but it doesn't change the sound from straight piped.

Most 4" turbo back systems come with a 3" downpipe. http://www.xtremediesel.com/mbrpperf...1-1-1-1-1.aspx Take a look at the picture and notice the difference in size from the downpipe to right at the bottom of the downpipe.
