bout 165-175rwkw,
mine with 86,000 pulled 175rwkw stock. depends on dyno and stuff though, auto's tend to make less power though

i payed to much for everything lol. at the time i got my edit, the flash tuners were still $999 can get them now for $600 so my edit was around the $1600, k&n filter was $110, cat back exhaust was about 800, full custom 2.5inch could of got cheaper if i chose cheaper mufflers, and then the hi flow cats were $250 each.
so to go from 175 to 202rwkw is about $3000, definately can get cheaper though, id shop around for tuners i know know of tuners that can do the same if not better job for alot less than what i payed. exhaust the same aswell, i went through kpm for this as i thought this would be the best idea,a normal exhaust joint could do the same job for alot cheaper, probably could get full cat back with hi flo cats for around $1000 if you shopped around.

Definitely get a decent exhaust. My mate's stock mint condition auto XR8 220 pulled 161rwkw. My 200kw TE made up a lot of that difference with an exhaust and made 158. Need to let them breath.

My AU3 220 auto went from 152rwkw(stock) to 184rwkw with HPC coated tri-y pacies, S/S cats, full S/S twin 2.5" difilippo system, K&N filter, plus edit. The actual kw figures of course are all relative as you know. Just get all your runs done on the same dyno and you can't go wrong. -craig

The stock headers on an XR 220, become a restriction at about 250 - 260 flywheel kilowatts. I recommend changing them if you are looking to get 200 at the wheels. As for the cats I'm running std cats, and pushing 201rwkw

I don't know about the single systems and how they perform. I think its debatable if aftermarket headers on a stock vehicle really make all that much difference, changing the exhaust yes but headers not so sure. I now have have Pacemaker PH4001's (Tri-y) installed, they make some difference in mid range but in hindsight I would not have bothered and looked elsewhere for more power before changing headers. This is on a manual, an auto may be different. A better option could be if changing headears stick with 4-1's, in my experience on a stock 220 the Try-y's are restrictive at higher revs, thats just in my experience, others may have different results/opinions. As far as cats go not sure on this, many think the standard cats are good enough, they probably are, Tickford did a damn good job with these 220's. Hope this is some assistance to you. |

well the exhaust place that did my system stuffed up the first time, they did twin 2 1/4 into a single 2 1/2 inch system, went ok but i think it was restricted up top end. and it didnt sound anything like i wanted it to. so i took it back and said this is not what i paid for. they agreed and put on a twin 2 1/2 inch system it might of lost a tad take off but the note is well worth it.

I went with a 2 1/4" straight through with high flow mufflers and no resonator, kept the factory cats, note with the factory headers was very good but changed to a deeper tone when I had aftermarket extractors installed. I like a twin system on a V8, don't know if the singles perform better or not but for note a twin system wins me over. |

twin cat back 2.5" sounds like the way to go.
i've been told a 3" would drone and the 2 1/4 would be too small? |

One of my mates has the Pacemaker comps on his AU2 XR8 manual, with single 3" system, one centre muffler and one rear resonator/hotdog - the thing is a rocket, and sounds great as well.

HM made the extractors for the T-series but the ones they sell for the aftermarket are quite different. From memory the person I spoke to at HM reckoned the aftermarket ones gave much better torque & about 8kws top end.
