Many Corvette Forum members are loving their XSPower headers. Let me know if you have any questions on them or if you would like to order!

You can go with the factory muffler system and if not happy, put aftermarket on yourself in the future, easy swap. That way you can listen to other cars with after market systems and figure out which one to go with. Save a few $'s too with stock. Decisions, decisions

What exactly is your problem?
I posted for the OP that it's possible to get about 8 to 12hp with a catback and I can link results if he wants to see them.
You're not the OP and I'm not going to look up the list of links for someone else who's being a confrontational ***. Quit being a lazy tool and do a search here and on Google and you'll find results.

It's a good looking system and fits well. The only mod I made was welding the midpipes together into one piece instead of using clamps to hold it together.

Yup, you should have and then you wouldn't be wrong and be posting what you think are smart-*** funny comments when in reality you have no clue.
B&B Bullet and Magnaflow catbacks both gained more than 4hp.

Corsa Titanium exaust gained more than 4hp.

The one test shows that you really need to tune after headers to get the best numbers. Just bolting on headers is a rather poor improvements compared to what many expect.

Um, if you had asked then I would have read "Can you post the links to the results?"
I never posted anything about with or without tuning. However, if the full header test results was with tuning then we're all wasting money on headers.
