If you go with true duals you will see much larger gains, new muffler on stock pipes, maybe 2 or 3 HP.[/align]

id say you would get the most gains from a v6 considering you are completely opening up the engines breathing pipes...sure you can get a catback on a GT but your really just replacing the mufflers.. with a 6 your changing the entire waste(exhaust) system.

That would be your intake side of the engine, the exhaust gets rid of used gas, so i'd call it the engine's *** hole if anything. OP your gains are probally in the 7-10hp area.
