I don't see a 4" DP really making a big diff from the 3" DP on anything smaller than a T4 exhaust side. Maybe I'm wrong, but I doubt the gains are significant.

I'm no help regardless, I own no MKIV.

If youre going to do some 4" piping that scrapes on every single bump and is probably a complete bitch to bend/hits your frame all the time, why not just get a nice 3" and pull it off when you go to race.. like its going to be some monster difference on stock turbos..

That's an option. I need to talk to the folks w/ 4" pipes to see if that's a problem - good point. I know the 4" won't make a big difference on the stock turbos, but I don't want to buy a 3" now ($700), then after going single, buy a 4" kit ($900 - 1200).

I'd go with the 4" TI exhaust, which is what I have. My car is down because I had to ship my T78 out for repair, but It should be up and running in 2 weeks. As for the 4" DP, if I were you, I'd talk to a guy named RJ on tidewaterracing.com who does custom welding. I believe his screen name on there is HJ11 .

BTW: A 4" DP wont scrape or hit anything.

The Tanabe Racing Medalion sounds NICE on a Supra then my buddy went and got a Titanium Veilside I believe sounded GOOD!

Yup I can vouch for him. RJ does top notch work. He did some exhaust work for me. If you plan on going single I say go for the 4" now. Also, the exhaust note will change quite a bit when you go single so keep that in mind when you listen to sound clips. Just something else to keep in mind.
