reason is your car does not pull as hard is cause you add the exhaust and nada else to supplement
remember even though the engine is 1.6 ... cams, IM, TB and compression are all bigger that yours

^ dude been there done that already
had s2000 TB port match and 2 1/4" exhaust .. when engine was stock
that made a nice match...
according to your statement
then it would have made better sense to run open header
And please read the OPs comment after he changed to the CTR exhaust

red_dragon: I now noticed something, where we extended the piping to the rear the guy used a 2" pice of pipe, which is 50.8 but the entire system is 57.2. Is that going to make a big difference in flow? Would it be restrictive at that point?

if you blow through a 1", you will get more exhaust velocity but if you blow through a 2" you will get less velocity but more flow
for NA,more velocity if preferred while boosted applications require more flow
simple physics feller

You can tune fuel without the dyno eh....
btw... just to chook fire... we've run open header on a stock b16a with very good results.... when the car is on the move, the low pressure zone helps with scavenging the exhaust from the collector area.

AF: 14: 2000-5000RPM

Timing was check, Set to stock
TDC is good.
Cap is also good
Compression 180,180,180,180
New plugs
New plug wires
But after all of this I think I want to get into a Honda 600cc bike. Thats the ultimate.
