3" otherwise you lose lowend torque and it'll seem like you've increased turbo-lag...if you're going to go with aftermarket turbo(s) then go 4" but only if you plan on exceeding 600rwhp .

Since you're turboed (1jz-gte), the less restrictive the exhaust, the better. Only NAs have the problem with losing low end power because of a bigger pipe.
