| Ok.... One More Time!! After seeing many threads about this, I need to ask for myself. I want an exhaust!!!!
SHOULD I GO WITH 4" OR 5 "?? TURBO BACK OR CAT BACK??
Im set on MBPR
I DO NEED THE OPTION TO PUT THE CAT BACK IN FOR INSPECTIONS IN DELAWARE!!!!
I normally run a 37" tire with Edge Juice w Attitude, and run a 285 tire when towing a 7500 lb rv. I have been told with a 5", I will loose some bottom end, but will make up for it with the edge? true???
Any and all comments welcome!!

| ya sounds bout right. I doubt it'll be anything noticeable performance wise. and yeah the edge will make up for it. some say that the 5" will sound a lil deeper. it definently will look better (awe factor). definently go with turbo back! its not worth it to do cat back, you wont notice much difference in sound or performance. |

| dmax... as i understand it, MBRP has it set up as a cat delete so that i can unbolt the "delete" pipe and reinstall the cat for inspection!!
Tyler... Thanks... thought about that also!!
I HATE INSPECTIONS!!

| Hmm IDK why but I dont care for the 5. IMO alot of $$$ for not that much power gain. Just looks cool. I'd go with the 4 turbo back Stainless steel for sure. You should be able to change the stock peace with the cat back pretty easy. All you'll need is a 4-.3.5 adapter. Your making a good choice with MBRP. Im impressed with everything on mine.
