OK so I am going to go straight up and out I want to use triple wall all the way do I can get the reduced clearance. What all Im I going to need as far as pipe and adapters ect.....
 
Just going thru ceiling and attic, or multiple floors?

Triple wall actually takes more space up. It still requires 2" clearance, but it is 2" bigger in diameter. So, you need an 8" hole for 6" double wall, and a 10" hole for triple. At least for Dura-Plus. I don't know what other triple wall is out there.

Agreed, go with double-wall class A pipe. To help you we need to know a lot more details about the setup and proposed installation.
 
How do you intend to install and vent it? Straight up, through the wall? Any complications?
 
You'll need connector pipe from the stove to the ceiling. At the ceiling you will need a ceiling support box that gets box framed and attached (I like screws) to the ceiling joists. From the support box through the roof will be class A chimney pipe. (DuraTech, SuperVent, etc.)

Both DuraVent and Selkirk have good planning guides. For the DuraVent guide go to the literature tab here:

This article is for a 2 story install, but the principal points are the same:
