I'm not an expert so someone will probably have to correct me, but I think the V8 exhaust piping is 2.75" while our stock size is 2.25" so that will give you a good performance boost. I have no idea about the flow of the muffler though. It may be worth it to you to get a Dynomax superturbo for $40 if your looking to keep things low cost.
just my $0.02

Here's the skinny (I picked up the same thing). The I-pipe from teh WS-6 is 2.75", our's is 2.25", as stated above. The problem is this: The Y-pipe on the LS1s goes into the I-pipe back in the drive-shaft tunnel, about where our S-pipe meets up with the I-pipe.
The difficult part is figuring out how to get the 2.25" S-pipe to mate up with the 2.75" I-pipe, because 1) the S-pipe is part of the cat, and 2) figuring out how to get a larger diameter S-pipe to make the turns.
When I went in to get mine done, I figured out that I already had a Flowmaster muffler on mine (I had just gotten the car), so I ended up just putting the tailpipes from the WS6 on the Flowmaster, and held onto the rest for trading or spare parts.
