Default Need help with new header/exhaust combo! SMSP?

I am currently running jdm 4-1 header to a 2.5 cat and rs*r exmag.
Car puts down 200/130 and I'd like to think my exhaust setup is holding me back.

I was thinking of going smsp 4-2-1 w/cat and his exhaust. I would like to keep the cat since it is my daily driver.

Does anyone recommend anything else?

SMSP would be my first choice.

On the contrary, it is a 60 mm system with a chambered muffler, and a car making 200 whp would definitely benefit from a more free-flowing setup.

I have it on my 185whp set-up and its doiing pretty good...im building my engine to achieve 220-230whp...im sure ill be fine!!! But well see!!!</TD></TR></TABLE>

What most people don't realize is that even though the difference between 60mm OD (2-3/8") and 2-1/2" OD (assuming about .060" wall) tubing is only 1/8" it is actually a 12% increase in internal area.

I went from a Greddy 60mm B pipe and 2-1/2" muffler to a complete 2-1/2" system on my daily beater and made more power across the board.
