That's intelligent. You're driving a tin can with no seatbelt.

I lost 6 HP and 6TQ across basically the whole RPM band through a single 3" spiral flow in my loudmouth setup. (compared to the cutout open) Im going to swap it out. I am only making 328 at the wheels, it would probably restrict more on your setup.

2500+ (where the pull started) the car lost power. Not worth it to me, the duals will make better power though.
