While not as free flowing as some aftermarket catback systems, the stock system still flows pretty good. I'm sure you would realize some gains by going with the LT headers and the other components you mention. Just hope you don't have any emissions inspections in your state.

I'm running LT Kooks headers ,no cats , X pipe and ZO6 Titanium mufflers. Love the set up !!!
When I bought the car it had all that but Borla quad stingers for mufflers. I was fun for about 2 weeks then the drone got tiresome.

Many of us are running factory titanium Z06 mufflers behind our headers/X
It's actually the combo I recommend
You could just as easily run the factory base muffs while you save up for your preferred catback
