gibsons are alright as long as you get stainless, their aluminum units tend to corrode badly, i recomed a custom tune, i know the westers guy i use said his tunes REALLY wake up those 496`s. others to look into are Blackbear, wheatleys,Nelson, etc, for custom tuning.

i would also recommend dynomax, corsa, or magnaflow exhausts.
