Default New Exhaust

I just recived my new true dual exhaust with MagnaFlow mufflers from Corvette Central for my 1990,, can't wait to get it on this spring and feel the difference as well as sound. How much horse power do you think that will add to a mostly stock L98 Auto 2.59 ?

Thanks

Paul

I had my true dual exhaust done and I think it sounds awesome. I'd say going from the stock to true duals gives you about 10-20 extra hp in the upper rpms. I'll have to run it again in the strip to find out.

Thanks. Ya know, I still want it louder. It's sooo much better than stock as it is though.
I'm not to sure about how much power I got, but I can totally tell the SOTP difference. Seems to rev faster and smoother.
