HP & TQ questions

Hi guys,

im pretty new here....hope i dont get some slack if these Q's have been answered already.

i would like to get more TQ for better accel. but also gain some HP for top end power.

-ive heard that bigger, free flowing exhauast systems kill TQ but help HP...is this true? so does that mean a smaller, restrictive system will help TQ?

-also heard that headers help HP? true?

-this is my logic here: ill put performance headers for HP and a not-so-free-flowing cat-back system for TQ....does that make sense or is my logic flawed?

-another........does a S/C help both TQ and HP or either one?

for thoes of mechanical incline, please feel free to suggest some ways to get close to what i m looking for.

thanks,
Carlos

It sounds like non-turbo, but can you confirm?
It's two different answers for turbo versus non-turbo...
