hmm, well i dont really know how to put this, so ill try my best at explaining it.
so, when im at part throttle, like -5 vac on boost gauge, my exhaust sounds like it should. like it did before the s/c. but when i step on it, it seems like there is too much backpressure or something cause it sounds jumpy and stuff. i cant quite explain it very well. but i tried lol. is it just me or is there something maybe letting go in the motor, cause it never sounded like that before. help please lol. thanks

I assume you are running 2.25" piping currently then? If you run any sort of forced induction, I would suggest you go up to atleast 2.5" piping.
no i am running 2.5"

i am running full 2.5" header back exhaust with a Magna flow cat and the biggest resonator i could fit and it sound nice and dosent seem like there is very much back pressure at all... The big resonator is because i HATE loud exahust.. i would rather more restrictive then loud...
I'd say 2.5-3" would be perfect for a boosted engine. I know a lot of 2.0's that are running 3" exhaust straight back from the downpipe.
I doubt it's the problem, but you might have a clogged cat or one that's gettin there?
