Default X-Pipe Question?

Will an X-Pipe improve performance of a stock 2002 ZO6? I am not looking for any significant gains, just better exhaust flow. I have read that the Magnaflow X-Pipe can add up to 6-8HP and similar TQ but that is comeing from Magnaflow . Any thoughts? Thanks.

Hello Sgt Plye.
I Just Installed A Magnaflow True X Pipe Yesterday On My 01-z . It Really Improved The Torque And Bubling Noise On Deceleration. No Dyno Numbers But It Does Make A Difference.

Homie,

with Rich H.

I got the same X pipe as he did for the same yr and got the exact same results. Purchased and installed at West Coast Corvette.

I installed one on my 01 coupe and I also agree, it makes a nice difference.
