Default single turbo dual exhaust?

i was wondering if anyone was running dual exhaust with a single turbo,and if you are can you post pics of your set up. would i be loosing power by doing this or should i run a single 3" pipe all the way out? i want to run dual pipes just not sure the best way to do it. thanks kev

You could always run a 3.5 or 4" out of the turbo, a flowmaster merge collector flipped around and run dual 2.25 or 2.5" pipe out the back. This could save you ground clearance and be equivalent in exhaust flow compared to a 3.5 or 4" single exhaust.

what size is the turbo outlet? You want to ensure the combined area of the two pipes is larger than the area of the outlet.
I split my 5" into dual 4s, but ran in way that isn't for a streetcar (fender exit behind the front tires)
