Isn't anything past the collector a restriction?

Not really. The stock exhaust system is actually pretty good for flow, but it sounds horrible. Adding a cat back adds maybe 5 whp, so all of the restriction is in the headers and cats as far as the exhaust goes. I'm willing to bet that the gains to be had from a cat back exhaust is from the x pipe.

You also remove a good bit of weight changing to an aftermarket system.

1495 I think he quoted after shipping and fees. It's a Billy Boat exhaust. Reason I want it is, it's the only exhaust on the market that keeps the dual mode function that NPP offers and it's a 3" so it's bigger than the Z/28 piping.

Stock bottom end on a single turbo will take mid 900hp. You don't need a block
