of course a blown V8 is gonna have a better torque curve if its tuned to suit the exhaust. If you wanted better torque out of your VN SS you should have stroked it. Then blown it.

Ok if you knew me you would have known my SS was a C.O.M.E 355 stroker then blower.

What has this got to do with what i said though?

I tell you what, depending on what the minister for finances say's, i am looking at stroking my current ride, i will get the exact same tests done, tuned to suit with headers only, tuned to suit with zorst.

you have to remember nearly everyone who puts a zorst on doesn't tune the car to suit. so they do lose low end torque, especially in a 6 cyl.

I have a stock system with a 2 1/2 inch hotdog and a 3 inch bent tip.

Gives it a nicer lumpier note.

you will if you've got headers, hi-flow CAT and only one muffler. my father inlaw has that and its gutless off the mark. my VL whips it. VTs already have less torque than an inline 6.
