How mods affect boost?
Just saying you start off with the stock radix system:
1. Add k&n open filter
2. Add ASM headers
3. Cut off cat's
4. Add magnaflow 3" in 2-2 1/2" out
Will this affect boost any and how? Also how will it affect A/F ratio? thanks

I have pretty much those same mods and more, few not, but my boost didn't budge off of the rated 6lbs with the 3.30" pulley. Cam and heads, I believe, are your biggest potential boost changes. I don't think what you have listed will do much of anything.

Sorry, Still recovering from last night
When you add a free flowing exhaust like headers and a magnaflow you will see your boost levels drop slightly. You have to remember that boost is actually a measurement of flow so don’t be concerned when you see less boost.
