Thank you Random for fixing my link problem!!
Ok..guys..tell me what u think about this idea!!
All in all I really want to go turbo..at a later date of course, so i really dont want to go through the hassle of getting a full exhaust system only to replace it later with a turbo setup (waste of money). I am going to purchase the S-AFC next week and am going to have an exhaust shop take out my cat and replace it with a 2 1/4 inch dual down pipe. This will do two things...get rid of my restrictive cat (already passed emissions so dont have to worry about it for another 2 years) and get rid of that 90 degree elbow after the cat that is sooooooo bad for flow. Both Random and I agree that the 2 1/4 inch exhaust is plenty for a N/A tuned Beta so no need to upsize. This will give me a 4-2-1, 2 1/4 inch exaust that is way less restrictive, and should bump my torque back up, due of the 4-2-1 setup. I will let everyone know when this is done and how it goes on the next dyno...prolly in about 2 weeks.

OK...here's an update....haven't gotten an S-AFC yet...waiting to see if my friend who owns a speed shop can weasel a S-AFC II from Apex-i so that I can install that one. Otherwise I will purchase from somewhere else!(across seas) No sense in getting the the first gen S-AFC since a new one is right around the corner!!
Secondly...I am in the process of looking for an exhaust setup..CHEAP though since my final thoughts are to go Turbo...so I dont want to waste alot of money!!!
I did however....take off my first cat...the one right outside the header and hollow it out...and YES...I gained alot of torque back...I really wanna dyno it now...with me just doin that..maybe sometime next week I will...
I will keep everyone posted!!
