Cool dual or y

I have a 94 z28 m6 pretty much stock except an slp intake but I am running up on some money here pretty soon and I was wondering if I should get true duals or go with a y pipe and a cat back and im looking for the most hp gains not to worried about sound

If you are not worried about ground clearance, definatly go with duals with an X pipe and bullet style mufflers (Borla XR-1's or SLP's loudmouth resonator's) Nothing will out flow that setup(If you have headers) and done right it sounds GREAT!!!
With stock manifolds, chris said it, y-pipe to a stock design catback, SLP Loudmouth, borla, magnaflow, etc

and some people believe marketing hype (flow restriction has never been proven in a controled test) I have seen flows make more power than dyno junk or slp on the same car and same dyno
