Get to work ya slacker!!!!

You will gain some mpg dropping the reverse flow crap muffler on the KWs with a acert, but its wont be much, maybe 2-3 tenths. Like you said Al the turbos are the bottle neck. Im sure the acert sees 90psi of back pressure at the manifold, almost double that of the boost pressure!!!!

I think brick has other plans. I'm glad he decided to take it off. It was sounding like he was going to leave it.... hell with that.
