New Exhaust & Sound (video)
J BODY PERFORMANCE HEADER - 1 5/8" PRIMARIES TO A 3" COLLECTOR
CUSTOM 3" DOWN PIPE W/ A 3" HIGH FLOW CAT, AND 3X8 FLEX PIPE
3" GLASSPACK RESONATOR
3" PIPING
3" MAGANFLOW STRAIGHT THRU MUFFLER (5"X11"X22")
It's surprisingly very quiet
At sea level; peak boost in 3RD on the 3" pulley is almost 13 PSI
(Correction... goes to 16 psi past 6,000 rpm)
Feels like I lost a lot of my low end, nothing a night out tuning won't change.

Sounds really good and clean. question. Do you lose some tq now with the 3". I dunno if what i heard was true or not but someone was saying that you only benefit from a 3" exhaust if you pushing at least like 20 psi. Is this true?
I don't need anymore attention on the road.
But... and I mean a big BUT!...
Now that my exhaust is flowing properly; I'll turn the meth on and see what I can accomplish within HPTuners
I'm running very conservatively in my low - mid-range on my spark advance table in HPT. The car's top end is practically maxed out, minus 2* for safety purposes.
One thing I've noticed tuning for methanol or no methanol on a 3" pulley. Is that the car maxes out top end w/ or without it. Where the methanol helps is our initial mashing of WOT(And thats the key difference between some of the tuner guys on here and the ones who are tuned. They tune for trq, while all these guys getting tuned, tune for HP). I'm gonna experiment w/ spark advance a bit more now that my fueling is dialed in.

no...2.8 pulley and smaller will benfit more with having a 3' instead of doing a 2.5
