I make 240 HP to the wheels at 9psi and I use a Tanabe Racing Medallion full cat back... which is only 60mm in diameter (2 3/8")... not to mention that I use a DC Sports 4-2-1 header with a collector just shy of 2" !!!

Just curious, do you have a cat or test pipe in that set-up?

I have a REALLY FREE FLOWING Cat...
Funny thing: a few years back I was getting some overheating issues along with poor performance once the car warmed up. I suspected the cat may be stopped up, so I removed it to take a look inside. To my surprise, guess what I saw when I looked into the mouth of the cat ??? WHATEVER I POINTED THE OTHER END AT !!! heheheh

Apparently, someone who owned the car before me made a "test pipe" that looks like a cat on the outside. There is no pipe running through the middle: just the removal of the catalyst medium and the screens.

And for all of those that want to jump in and say "I thought you would get really turbulent exhaust flow by hollowing one out"... well, so did I. But it appears that this does NOT seem to pose a problem.

Yeah, very nice number, 240whp, which is roughly 15-20 hp more than than the avg 8psi GSR setup. However, Jim does have a tuning advantage, it is his profession! It would be difficult for him to sell his services just because he is a nice guy.
You should also take into consideration that Jim's car does not turn an A/C or P/S belt, couple that with his skillz and a very free flowing cat and walla, you have an extra 15-20whp!
