I don't know that I would say huge on an otherwise stock car. Over a 2.5" exhaust with a stock muffler and a test pipe (no cat), the gains by going to a full 3" (no cat) is 4hp and 7tq to the wheels. I have tested this on my dyno, and have posted the charts in the past if you do a search in the archives.
Dont get me wrong, I still run a 3" exhaust

The pressure makes a difference in higher boost levels also, that is the big differnce. What boost level did you use on your dyno runs? 15+ many people run 18 on the 300whp package and you start seeing the bigger difference.
Either way your still doing an exhaust mod and I think that is the first best upgrade on a tubo car hands down

I looked and Lindseys site.
I would recommend to save the extra money for the 300whp kit. You get the boost controller and the wastegate. Forget messing with the shims and the enhancer. You can downgrade to a 3" exhaust from there and save some money.
The Borla XR-1 is an option on the exhausts

Yea +1
It will save you the hassle of doing it again when you decide you want more power. Spend the extra money now, you will not be disappointed.
