I'm not really sure as I bought the car with a blown motor so nothing to compare it against. It does seem to go pretty good for a v6 :-)

I will be putting together a custom true dual exhaust from the collectors all the way out the back of the car. While everyone is into lowering cars these days, I am raising mine (old school I guess). There will be about 2' of pipe off the collectors into dual Thrush mufflers, then nice long pipes all the way back over the axle and out the back of the car, all 2.25 inch.

I'm not sure when the exhaust will be done as it's too damn cold to work on it right now here in Minnesota...

Here's pics of the project, sorry they are in random order I plan to put an article together and fix up the website. My daughter helped me pull the old motor, that's her green camaro in the background :-)

Thats awesome! My dad bought the same headers aswell for mine. I work at a fast food restaurant so I don't make any money, So I gotta hold up a few weeks for the clutch.
