True duals sound good and would give the best power increase, but they're loud and you'll lose a chunk of ground clearance. If them being loud and grd clearance isn't an issue; go for the true duals.

I have 3" true duals. They are tucked up pretty nice, but I have to take it easy over speed bumps since I'm lowered. Besides the converter, it's the best mod I've done to the car.
