08 LS header/dp

I have heard that my 08 LS came with the lsj header but I havent heard about the downpipe. Could I still benefit from an SS downpipe or is that on my car also? Thanks

the lsj exhaust manifold and dp are different than the ls/lt, yes you could benefit from the lsj dp cause its about twice as big as the one you have right now and it only has one cat when yours has 2 alot of people prefer to go aftermarket though so its your call

The main point is that either way I will benefit from the ss downpipe then, that is what I wanted to clear up. Thanks guys
