i can only talk about my stack single 6" with a 5 inch down pipe to the pipe. had a 62/65/14 but with the 64/71/14 I know have before I went back to the 5" full exhaust I liked the sound of the new turbo over the older. I had alot more nicer whistle with the newer turbo. I have never had dual stacks.

with a slider window I did move the tip up about a 1"1/2 above the window line. I think the cab would have been alittle more quiet if I didnt have a slider. I also moved the stack about 9 inches from the bed rail.

I have 5" to dual 7" stacks, it's a real deep tone. Not sure how much a difference you will notice bumping it up an inch. You will get a serious drone at about 1800 revs. I originally had the stock pipe going to the stacks, and it changed the sound a bit, but not a ton. I just went bigger for the better flow.

thanks I like white, but hated the fact that my white was always jacked from the room to the bed and tailgate with the stack.
