TWF and sneak attacks

For a rogue character with HiPS, is there much benefit taking the Improved and Greater Two Weapon Fighting feats? I've noticed that my attacks from stealth after the first very rarely trigger sneak attacks. I've read up on flurries and initiative order and it's all gone over my head a little :oops:

TWF and BAB increase the number of attacks in the first flurry so increase the number of sneak attacks out of stealth

As a SA rogue you NEED perfect TWF....

Sneak attack happens on your first flurry of attacks out of stealth...

So a rogue with medium BAB ends with 5APR on lvl 30

the flurries are like 2/2/1 - so you SA on the first 2 attacks

having PTWF gives you same number of attacks in your off hand so it doulbes your attack from stealth
