I have one but it was custom made for the setup I have. I am going to take the twins off here pretty soon so I will no longer have a 5" downpipe.

5" will be far too big for a stock turbo... 4" is plenty for nearly all applications.

Nope. I think they sound pretty mean though.

x2. Unless one side is flattened to clear the frame there is no way you can get one in there!
