Turbos work of backpressor and you don't want it too big! 3" is huge compared to the stock Incon exhaust, It was 2" 1/2 but at the turbo the cast downtube was flatend down to about 1" oval! I didn't fab it Livernois did it! I wish I had better pics of the 3"fabed up down tubes.
I think you have it backwards. Turbos work off of the exhaust pressure, but this piping is AFTER the turbos - you want minimal restriction. Dual 3" would definitely get you some power.

I don't realy know that was what the fab guy was saying! I wish I had a pic of the stock Incon pipes it starts of as a 1" crushed oval then into 2 1/2"!
We are fabing a T-flang on the end of the Y then a stainless 12" long bullet.. So if I every want one bolt and unhook the hanger, and where open!
I will post audio clip of it but it is no loud at all, the only thing you get that is louder is the turbo!

there realy isn't room for a 4" and I don't want duals b/c of clearance! I don't think that that 4"-6" of the Y area will hurt any! Like I said with the crushed 1" oval into a 2 1/2" to a Y into a 3" ATR Y back I had 11lb of boost and 520hp and 592tq on a stock motor!
Another car that has the same turbos and QTP dual cutouts 3" away from the turbos saw very little gain with them less than 10hp!
I can see how a bigger exhaust would help but only to a point!
