Around 20 rwhp. All the LT's will produce near the same results especially on bolt on cars.

only reason i ask is cause I know my SLP's did **** for me on my T/A. I was gonna go cheap with like a set of Pace Setters or Edelbrocks but after thinking about it, if I dont make the power I am gonna be pissed so I'd rather go with the best. 20 Rwhp would work for me, I wonder how loud with the flowmaster??

I went from 302/315 to 339/356, going from stock manifolds, stock ypipe, and a shitty flowmaster to kooks 1 3/4", kooks catted Ypipe, and a loudmouth with an XR-1. This is on a 99.

I felt some nice gains from my kooks vs the stock exhaust with flow master. I didn't get it dynoed untill I got my cam so I don't have any numbers to tell. You also might want to get an ls6 intake that might help as well. Also the flomaster doesn't flow much better than stock sounds good though. The hooker or magniflow would be a good cheap alternitave.

I'm not sure of what I gained but the headers made it pull a lot harder. Also it seems like I gained some power in the lower rpms too.
