stock muffler-ok
GT take-off single-little louder and little deeper +10hp
GT Take-off duals-more louder and a little more deeper than the single take-off
h-pipe w/duals=deeper
x-pipe w/duals=raspier
y-pipe w/duals=i don't know
Any duals should give u 10hp or a little more. Hope this helps!

Be sure to get the GT M/T takeoff and not the GT A/T take-off.
They are different and you can really tell the difference.
But if you really dont care, I have a GT A/T that I will sell
for $5 + S/H.
I got burned on eBay and they sold me a M/T and shipped a A/T.[:@]
Dont get burned by a GT A/T take-off like I did.
Use the search function. Many many posts about this.

Sorry but the GT takeoff doesn't give you 10hp. At best you'll see 2hp which is essentially nothing. Exhaust on this car is more for sound that performance. Not necessarily true of the older designs.

I don't know if it is 10hp for the single GT-takeoff. I no other hi-flow single aftermarket mufflers give an average of8rwhp=~10hp crank(Dyno Proven). I heard someone say their just as good as aftermarket mufflers and would show 10hp gains. But I actually don't know. Yes mufflers help sound, but they do yield nice hp gains. That's dyno proven!

How can you tell the difference after you have it already?
