Switching Exhaust Question
I currently have a 408 stroker with ported and polished 243 heads, cam, and Borla headers, X pipe, and Borla XR1 straight pipes. The car was tuned after the install. My question is if I switch out my XR1 straight pipes for the stock Z06 titanium exhaust will 1) lose any power? I was told since it's a bigger motor that the stock exhaust will cut back on my exhaust flow and could damage the motor 2)Will I need to get a new tune on the car since the tune was done with the XR1 exhaust on the car? I like the sound of the titanium exhaust and need something quieter.
