How do tailpipes add backpressure?? My guess is the car is exactly the same and it's all mental. exhuast makes little difference to start with.

Surfacefriction and bends.

Go buy a 10 ft garden hose and a 50 ft garden hose (same diamater) and hook both up to full pressure and you will see the 50 ft one put out alot less pressure.

It is not mental, I have experienced this with 2 of my rides, and a few of other peoples rides. I believe it has been proven on the web somewhere.

But I have not personally tested it on a dyno or anything. If you do a search, you can see alot more of the same reaction with and without pipes.

I recommend an x pipe feeding 2 SLP loudmouths and no Cats if you want to keep 2 and a half inch without changing headers. Mine sounds aggressive enough to turn heads fast, but normal enough to not have that choppy big block sound when you rev it to 5,000 RPM's
