Paolo, contact Jim Buckley at Buckley Racing in Ft. Worth, Texas if you wanna see an aftermarket exhaust that makes real power on older 911's.

I think you have old B&B headers w/heat on there now Paolooch, long primaries with the collectors back near the muffler flange. Ever talk to Steve Wong about the chip that was put in there almost a decade ago?

Would need a lot more info to be able to answer the question with a reasonable educated guess:
Current exhaust system
Intake system
Chip specs
Any head work
Other engine mods
