So I'm running open headers and I have a question Well I've been running open headers for the past 4 days and I do notice a drop off in low end TQ
But shouldn't I gain a little HP up top?
Just thought I would ask, I'm taking it to the track Saturday (if it doesn't rain) to see what it will do

Either way, if you are going to run w/o an exhaust, I would re-tune the car for it. Otherwise, you're just making your car louder for no good reason.
ONLY taking the exhaust off will not do much. If you make a change that drastic to the car, you should tune for it.
