Default Need advice plz

Hi, short n sweet i have a 99 c5 a&a v3 3.8 pulley pretty much stock ls1, did the basic upgrade ps, damper, bracket
making 485 whp at 8 psi not bad but want a lil more lol
im looking long tb 1 7/8 x 3 no cats
my question is does it make a big diff if the collectors drop down from 3 x 2.5 to x pipe to connect to my b&b exhaust?
or should i stay 3" all the way back n get a new 3" exhaust ?
dont know if its worth changing everything or try n save my exhaust
thanks

I don't think it would be worth changing your rear section at your power level, you can make plenty of power with your current b&b

I made 675 through 1 3/4 headers, 3” x pipe reduced to 2.5 cords catback. You’ll be fine. If you want more power throw on a meth kit and go to a 3.6 pulley.
