Power per mod discussion

That's what I thought but wanted to be sure.  I should be able to claim 23 w/o cats.  Not counting tune tweaks, Typhoon +-, or third cat/res delete.  I'll be 365 WP.  Easy 12's.  Yeehaw!
 
Not sure how the OEM mufflers are on the SHO, but from what I can tell, the ExSport OEM mufflers appear straight through, just long. So I'm not sure the vehicle would benefit from a muffler swap. Definitely plan on an X - pipe and high flow chatted down pipes.

Has anyone just removed the mufflers

How about leaving stock exhaust alone except adding an X-pipe with a boost activated cutout to completely eliminate exhaust resistance when you ask the engine for a lot?!.  Even add a solenoid to close the boost line when you want it quiet.

Here's 2 threads on this here, first one is a video of such a beast in action (the cutout I mean):

You guys in the explorers have a "regular" intercooler, the other transverse motors do not and it would be a HUGE undertaking to upgrade the stocker.

Still learning about my new platform. Does this mean that the ESports have an adequate intercooler?

Also, is anyone currently working on ported exhaust manifolds? Haven't had a turbo car in almost a decade, so this may be a stupid question.

Can't port the car exhaust manifolds, they're sheet metal :(

Mufflers are heavy stock

Nope, not really, same old stuff just found that the trans can't really handle above 500WTQ for more than a few months at a time.
My suggestion use the upgraded stock turbos I sell when/if your stockers go out with meth or race gas for a good and reliable long term car.
 
Not sure if this was discussed,  but on the G8 heat killed hp just like on the SHO. They had one thing they called the HSRK. Or heat soak reduction kit. What it was is a much quicker reacting temp sensor, IAT, placed in the airfilter. Helps  at the track, the lazy stock IAT would not change the cooler temps that happen just with airflow once moving until after your 1/4 mile race. I am sure it could help us too. My intake goes up fast in temp on stopping, once I am moving again, slowly goes back down to 9 above ambient. Just a thought every little bit counts.
