So, the previous owner of my vehicle cut the mufflers out and welded pipe in place, with some nice exhaust tips. For a 4 banger, it sounds mean. My concern is, I'm sure I'm losing back pressure, which from my current understanding, means that I'm also losing HP.
Question #1 - What long-term effects, on which components, will the lack of back pressure have?
Q #2 - What are some options to add back pressure without putting mufflers back on? I know some fellow bikers I've met have welded bolts, washers, etc. inside their short exhaust to compensate for the loss of back pressure.
Thanks in advance!
