I’m finally doing the whole exhaust thing. Going with a clear image auto 4-1 mid length header with 1.75" primaries going to a Stainless steel 3" catless downpipe. This will connect into a cobalt 3" Hahn Racecraft catback lengthened to fit an Ion. Connected into the header will be an Autometer EGT gauge (unless people recommend a different one). Then I will check my IDC% and probably have to bump up to 60# injectors. Also I will be hooking up my water meth injection kit from AEM. Once that is done I will probably be wanting to add a bit more boost and drop to a 2.8" or 2.7" pulley. Depending then on my IAT2 numbers I will then probably take a dremel to the s/c and do some port work. Hoping for around 280whp. Last time I dyno’d I had 245whp on a 2.9" with the stage II tune and stock exhaust. I think with a good tune and these mods on the same dyno 280whp could be achieved. Tell me what you guys think. If you want, we will coat your 2.8" with a nonslip, metallurgically bonded carbide coating for free. We are in testing phase right now for this coating but it appears that it works perfectly and does not wear the belt at all. Pulley slip is usually an issue at these pulley sizes. see [carbinite.com](http://carbinite.com) The only thing that we ask is that you give us feed back.
