Default what's your exhaust set up at the track?

when you drop your exhaust at the track do most of you find benifical gains with just the header and nothing else? Or do most of you run a b-pipe?. I'm getting my car ready to race this friday to see what it will run. I just want to know if it's worth it to drop the exhaust after the header or keep it on? Any info about NA set-ups for b16a2 would be much appreciated.... wish me luck. I will post pics and times on saturday.....

I race it as I drive it ie full exhaust. The only thing I do at the track is drop the front tyre pressure and pump up the rears.

Depending on the set-up you'll probably drop .1-.2 and pick up 2-3mph. This was my expierience with a mild set-up.

Would the different flow characteristics cause a need to re-tune? I've got a full 3" dp and exhaust, but I'm concerned about dropping the pipe... there will be a lot less of an exhaust restriction... wouldn't this allow more air through the setup... possibly causing you to run lean? Please correct me if I am mistaken
