Changed to a 3" downpipe and 3" exhaust and it bumped it up to 281whp. No disrespect intended but does your statement still stand or no? Like i said i dont know how the 370z exhaust, since its dual, handles the size. I'm guessing since its dual that theory still applies but to a greater number....for example, 400whp.
Volume of 2 x 2.5" exhaust is 9.8 sq/in.
Volume of single 3" exhaust is 7.0 sq/in.

The dual intake / dual exhaust will carry more air mass with less restriction than the single exhaust on your supercharge 4-cylinder did, regardless of boost level.
