Per Mark's advice...I will be replacing the side pipe inserts to a more free flowing design....(the brand new ones from Hooker)....not the reverse flows....suppose to be the same hp as a straight pipe.... :lol: ;)

400 at the wheels??

It's your Vette now. I'll take credit for building it, but I'm actually not the only builder. My buddy Andy put in almost as many hours as I did.

With a good tune and a less restrictive exhaust my guess is 405 at the wheels.

Which Hooker inserts are you talking about? It already has Hooker inserts. You may want to look into the spiral inserts: http://www.spiralturbobaffles.com/ordering.html

researched the spirals....want to give these a chance..... :_paranoid

400 to the wheels would be sweet. Doesn't matter what it dyno's to the rear wheels as that car is SCHWEET. Good gawd. :eek: :thumbsup: Let us know regardless. :unibrow:

400-415 would be normal. A stock LS1 will lay down 330-345 in a stock Camaro. With those mods you should be right there around that 400 mark

Looks like they've improved their design. You'll still have to cut them at both ends at the welds to slide the guts from the main outer tubing. The sidepipes on the Vette are 3.5"

I remember you said that is how you did it....will let you know.....

Best to see if they'll work first before tearing apart the sidepipes. Like I said, performance is already great. Do the tune and drive it before you replace the inserts. The sound is great as it is too. Any louder may get annoying.

Good idea. We used to use a spiral insert virtually identical to those in our V-drive boats when we went to a lake with a muffler requirement. They knocked the crap out of the performance of the boat, so that style makes me wary. I am not saying those are identical to what we had, but similar enough to make me post.
