The system is only going to flow as well as the smallest restriction. You need to look at your goals for the exhaust. If you are mostly interested in the note, just get a cat back. If you are looking for a performance increase as well then get a full system.
I'm not too familar with what size/setup works well on the soarer twins, but 3inch is usually the street standard for turbo engines.

You need a custom dump pipe and a high-flow cat if you want any worthwhile performance gains. What happens after the cat is far less important, which is why a cat-back exhaust is strictly for show/wank factor.

if its a 1J soara you need dump pipes off the turbo into a set of high flow cats then keep the twin pipes for as you can down the car

makes good mid range torque too . the twin cats have proven to work as well as an empty one but even 1 high flow doesnt seem to last or work as well
my twin pipes dont rejoin until after the gearbox

for 1ggte the exhaust design should really be the same although as many have already said . The cost of dump pipes is putting you closer to a big single everyday
