From my '06 A6 SC experience, my car made 505 rwhp / 452 rwtq with the stock LS2 exhaust manifolds/cats/H-Pipe/Corsa Sports. With a full Z06 exhaust manifolds/cats/H-Pipe/Corsa Sports, my car produced 546 rwhp / 476 rwtq (not LT headers). The exhaust flow was greatly improved with the Z06 system and 3" pipes, but 505 rwhp isn't too bad.
