Default Borla Stingers

Does anyone know approximately how much additional horsepower you gain by switching to Stingers? I had the stock mufflers on my Z06 and it sounds great but was just wondering about the possible gain. :confused:

Never mind! I finally found my answer in archives.

Zero, on a stock motor. Very little to none on a built motor. But they sound so SWEET. :yesnod: :yesnod: :yesnod:

Someone has a dyno sheet on the Z06vette website where they gained about 15-20 rwhp with the Borlas, X-pipe, blackwing and larger carbon fiber airbridge. I'll try to find it and post the link. :thumbs:
