Default HP gain from exhaust on C5?

First, YES, I did read the above thread on intake/exhaust mods...

I dyno-tested the cutout on my 99 z28 and with a pulley also, went from 297rwhp to 323. A nice gain.

Now, I'm about to install a Borla Stinger along with the crossover Xpipe. Will I see similar gains?? Is it purely a sound difference? THX!

A cutout flows better then a catback but you should see similar gains

You will definitly hear the "stinger"

The X pipe gives the Vette's a nice "scream"

Great...that's what I want to hear

For a "muscle car," the vette sounds wayyyy too tame in stock form.
