Default Track only exhaust? This make or loose power?

Im having some problems building the suspension i want with my exhaust, so i have been thinking. My current setup is 3" duals with turndowns. Now i was thinking about have 2 setups. 1 being a ory with stock catback or some other cheap aftermarket one.

For the track i was thinking about my Hooker LT's to some muffler, bullet or something similar on each side after the header with turndowns. No crossover. Will this loose power and low end?

Current power is 346ci cam only. 405/389

You have a point. My car leaves the line at 5k and hardly drops.
