exhaust size
I have the TN kit in my tC, with fully built internals. I have a straight through 2 1/2" exhaust that was custom made for the car.
I am currently at 310 whp @ 9 pounds, but will be tuning for 12 pounds very soon.
Do you think I would see some HP gain by going with a 3" exhaust?
Would the S-pipe have to be custom made?
thanks...

Well with the power you are going for I would say yes a 3" would help. You may not need to wait long though. www.gspec.com has a 3" downpipe back exhaust in the works. Mandrel Bent stainless piping, etc. Should be exactly what you need (includes S pipe)

Best person to ask would be Greg Vogel from Gspec www.gspec.com he's leading the project.
