Why stainless vs. the Jet Hot coating? Nice either way.. mine aren't quite as big (2" pri with 4" collector) but then again neither is my motor..

For what we are talking about, the cam height really doesn's matter. What we car about is cam crossover/overlap/seperation. These all really tell the same thing. The more the seperation, the less time the intake and exhaust are open together. Good example is high rpm cam has a seperation of 108-110. Good street cam is about 114.

A B303 has 112, I have 106 <-- idles @1200 rpm.

Stainless because I am going to heat rap them because of all the intercooler pipes, mild steel will rust out. Jet hot and Ceramic just cost to much in comparison to heat rap.

with a 4 inch collector, if you put a flange in it that has 1 inch on both sides, you now have 6 inch flange (kind of big). The exhaust is just going to slip on and it bolts on with little clips.

Turbo cars consitently make less mph that blower cars. At 800 feet the turbo car is at full boost and in top gear. At 800 the blower car is in top gear, but the boost keeps coming and coming. I will get you some numbers but I am absolutley sure of this. Superchanged cars chase everyone down (cfm for cfm).
