Default 05-06 GT Exhaust question

I have a 2006 GT, 5 speed, 4.10's with the E kit from RPM outlet. I was considering a X pipe. My question is I have the stock manifolds still on the car, is there horsepower to be found or is it a moot point. The car has run 12.96 straight motor now and is daily driven. I don't want to hurt the torque to the point it affects the driveability. The car does have a tune in it, the C&L(predator)

Make sure when you purchase your x pipe you get the one with the cats on it youll keep your torque and gain horses due to back pressure oh yeah and also itl will save you a headache when it comes to your computer

Because you lose some backpressure when you lose the converters

I am almost tempted to get a pair of Thrush Glasspacks just to see what they sound like!
