Whats your opinion on this setup i want to get about 350-400 hp max and its a DD
Your performance will hinder and you will be at great lost. Get a single 3" exhaust and you'll definitely make more ponies. I know that you want the stock look and sound but you won't be able to get your money's worth from your FI w/ stock exhaust.
Also, aren't exhaust temps increased with FI? Running risk of disintegration of your CAT and the the internals of the rest of your piping...including muffler/s. Don't know for sure so don't hold my word towards it.
I would post this in the FI section...will get much better feedback.

How about an electric exhaust cut out? You can roll around with less power\stock exhaust and with the flip of a switch open up a straight pipe to unleash the beast. It would get loud but shouldn't be too bad considering turbos themselves are pretty decent mufflers.
