2003 z06 LT header question
I have a 2003 z06 with a intake only. Wondering if there is any low end torque loss with ARH LT headers or similar brands. I love the way the car pulls even in stock form but wouldn't mind a bit more hp / torque. But i dont want to lose low end torque in the process of adding LT headers. As we all know its not a cheap purchase so would love to hear feedback. If its worth the dough as my plans are to keep the stock cam it would just be tune/ ported TB, ARH LT, HF cats and stock titanium exhaust.

My 04Z is pretty much identical; K&N intake, Texas Speed headers and tune, Magnaflow cats and X, Ti's.
Don't know if a ported TB is worth it this close to stock... is it?

LT's and stock Z06 cat back has been one of my favorite sounding exhausts for the C5 cars.
