The way I did mine is "4.5 out of the turbo, then welded in a Y to dual 3" then out each side of the stock kmember.

Sort of like a LT1, some from up top, real easy from bottom. The DP is 2 piece with a band clamp in the middle, to get it out of the way.

A couple of simple heat shields riveted to the bottom of the hood is all that was needed for a little extra insurance. It is amazing how much room is under the WS6 hood.
