I could probably use a bigger exhaust too!

I try and post some engine bay images and see if I can find the muffler make. Definitely not 3" anywhere!

Isn't the stock connecting pipe like 2 inches?? Get that thing to an exhaust shop, that exhaust is costing you a lot of power.

I don't know much about carb sizing, but I was at that same dyno last year and pulled a 150 with my do 12a . I did about the same at another dyno locally, and did another run after my exhaust redesign and longer intake manifold and pulled a 165whp . mind you I'm street ported but still your boosted. just to give you an idea.
