Default Supersprint exhaust

What does everyone think about this exhaust? I have a lead on one for $500ish and it's in pretty good shape. It would be for my '04 C5. I think these systems were pretty expensive new - how are the performance gains on them in comparison with a borla, b&b and et al?

Thanks,

Grant

I have never seen one on a Vette but I know from experience with imports they are of good quality. I didn't think they made Vette systems for a long time now. Must be older. I also remember they are very quiet so I think that's why they didn't catch on. Lots of USA made exhausts to choose from that are of excellent quality.

I'd guess performance gains are the same as the other systems.........that is to say, non-existant.

Buy an exhaust for sound.......not for 1-2hp increases.

Would that be the same for the z06 ti one? I can get a z06 ti for a pretty fair deal, would that be just as good performance wise as the other ones? I know it'll probably be quiet compared to others.
