Hmmmmmm...  My test show that you HAVE to remove the kitty when your 
upping the boost and playing with the cam (Not big cam, Just playing with 
it) Backpressure is a problem and HEAT is the major problem....  The 
stock exhaust flows OK up to 250hp then it's a limiting factor.  Probally 
on of the reason's I have a faster 30-70 time than you (And I weigh 
more)...

Later!
