Noticable HP/TQ Gains after True Duals?
As of right now, I have Hooker Longtubes, O/R Y-Pipe, and a Hooker Cat-Back with a Bullet Muffler on My I-pipe. Something broke inside my Hooker cat-back, and is rattling around inside, and driivng me up the wall. A buddy of mine said he'd sale me a True Dual set-up, consisting of o/r H-pipe, dual cut-outs, and 1-chamber Flowmasters, with Hooker Angle cut Tips. For the price I'm getting this at, I can't really pass it up...I figured I'd run it for awhile, and then sale it sometime this summer or something. My question is, would I notice a difference in hp/tq by going to the freer flowing exhaust? OR would I notice a loss of low-end, but a gain on top end? Mods consist of a cam, supporting valvetrain, and your basic bolt-ons.
TIA,
Jason
Or, if anobody knows someone who would be interested in the set-up..lemme know

The biggest improvements will be in the low to mid rpm range. I have seen areas under the curve increase as much as 20-25 lb-ft of torque. That is great stuff for daily driving.
Upper rpm power tends to be about the same or a little more than the y-pipe setup.
