Default Why is my car so slow?

hey everyone i just joined,
ive got a question, i just bought a 94 ed falcon with the 302 windsor efi, ive looked them up and they 165kw, and the 0-100 is roundabout 8 seconds, but my car is no where near that, i put a k&n filter on it and that made a little difference. But i find the 3.8 commodores pullin away from me a bit, but i come back eventually, why is it so slugish, is the car really restricted by the standard exhaust system?
Help me i need to be in the 8 sec 0-100, im getting extractors soon and the muffler replaced, what sortof power gain am i lookin out to get with the exhaust system and filter, cheers everyone.
Rosco
