probably best to start witt extractors, high flow cat , straight through mufflers and 2.5" exhaust, maybe a 3" exhaust. then get it flash tuned

Interesting, and what levels do you think these things would put out?

not to sure as i mainly work with the old SOHC motors, but just a flash tune would increase your power and with a full exhaust it would definately make a fair bit more power.

Not sure if it's the same on the FG, but if you can upgrade the intake by getting a bigger snorkel or a better flowing filter such as BMC or K&N air filters (oil based), you might get better throttle response.
Also what jerrytorry...exhaust and flash will definitely get you going quicker.
