    get a boost gauge first. See how many lbs it's boosting to. Most of the time if you add a new exhaust you'll boost less. If so you'll need a manual boost controler to keep the boost at stock levels.

    Actually if you add a bigger exhuast, you will boost higher. Less back pressure makes it easier to turn the turbine wheel.

    correct with higher flowing exhaust the car will spool harder and faster.
