Well, that all depends on what you do to the rest of your engine. If you
can make it inhale enough and you do your heads right, 3" duals could be a
benefit. ;-)

I thought it depended on single -vs- dual exhaust, and for the 4.7, a dual
3 inch exhaust would actually rob you of power and decrease HP and/or
torque.

For best performance gains for the 4.7, believe the common thought is to
go with a 3 inch single exhaust.

Now as regards to gibson -vs- flowmaster on the single exhaust, I've seen
quite a few posts saying people were disappointed with the gibson (not
much louder than stock) and took them off and re-installed a flowmaster
setup.
