Lucky kid, watch some videos on youtube and decide what sound you like best. If you just want to run a single pipe setup i would run 3" from the Y-pipe into whatever muffler you decide on with a nice 3.5" or 4" tip on the end. If you want to run true duals stay with 2.25" for more low end power or 2.5"

that's preference- make sure it's mandrell bent, if you are investing in duals-might as well be done RIGHT.

Have a listen to my truck, but I think he would like true dual Dynomax Bullets more.

Just keep the pipe size down to 2.25 for low end torque, and have either an X or H-pipe.
