SF,

No problem on the typo

Exhaust wise, we all need to remember that we are running a 4.0 liter engine. Big pipes tend to kill low end power because they cause a big drop in velocity. The key is keeping the velocity while increasing the flow.

There are 2 key areas that need to be addressed.
- The manifolds/headers
- The cat back

As far as headers go... I am actually working to create parts to work with all our V8 sedans. Depending on year and model some minor work will be needed for fitment but the result should be dramatic improvement in power. I am waiting on CL approval before formally offering these in a GP but anyone interested should definitely check out this link

As for the secondary system please read through my posts on what my plans are for my car...

Basically, improve everything from the cats back.

Any other questions please ask.
