Default ran over speed bump wrong, dented headers

How much horses am i losing? i dented the driver side headers running over a speed bump. Its not drastic, just some indentation where the headers collect at the end and a a little on the cat converter. will this make a big dyno difference you think?

It shouldn't make much of a difference. If it's just a small dent it will flow right over it without much turbulence.

i never really felt a difference, but i figure any indentations would make a difference, just wondering if it made a change to where i should go buy new headers and cats grrr.

I wouldn't worry about it. You probably aren't losing more than a few hp.
