My buddy ran all but the same set-up you have their same exact manifold. He didnt recirculate his dump tube at all and on 14lbs he made 355whp. Id say on 10lbs your probably pretty close to being right on the horsepower but id also say that were your dump tube enters back into the down pipe that it is probably robbing you of some power. if you wanna recirculate your dump tube I would have it renter on the next elbow were the exhaust turns to go back under the car....

^^ that is true.. but considering it is pointing the same direction as the flow, it wouldnt hurt it that much especially with 3"

What is hurting you is the cast manifold.. they dont flow well above 6k rpms. A mini ram or full ram will make it flow.

Since you have an aftermarket IM, did u get a larger TB and match it? that right there will give you good gains.
