COMplex Your really about where you should be with your set up.Your exhaust is what is chocking you.You need to get the exhaust out quicker.To get good numbers from a SC the engine must breather freely.Upgrade to a race header, High flow cat like the magnaflow carsound and bigger exhaust 2.75 min.(skunk2 or AJP)I can see at least 15-20whp. If you would upgrade the exhaust.Then if you really want to wake the SC up.Go with a set of IPS SC cams with a TSX TB. With all of that. I would bet at least 260-270whp.Don't loose hope.A SC set up must have all the parts to match to get the peak power from it.You get one component mismatched and the power suffers.
