Default New exhaust setup

I'm looking to get more hp out of my current engine, so I switched to a new exhaust setup-Stahl headers and sidepipes. This is an old set of Stahl's I got from a friend of mine, they were originally built for a midyear car. Hopefully it does the trick and unleashes some hp from my engine. My previous setup was DynoMax headers with 1-5/8" primaries and 2-1/2" undercar muffler shop crush bent pipes with H-pipe and Flowmasters. Comments on what I might expect performance wise?

I would think that this setup would beat a crush bent system anyday. By the way AWESOME RIDE!!!
