supposedly a good exhaust can add up to 30% power...well it will free up the power at least.

Yes it should raise boost, just be careful and make sure you have enough fuel when the boost creeps....

yeah, some 720cc secondaries would be a good idea and a high flow fuel pump

When going to a full exhaust from a stock exhaust is like night and day. The gains were in my eyes unbeleivable the first time I drove it. I did start to run lean though, nothing a Walbro 255lph fuel pump couldnt take care of though.
