some back pressure can help with torque in your lower RPM range, hence your butt dyno feels a lil more power.

backpressure is bad. You want a system with as little backpressure as possible.

I know that. With the silencer in it does create backpressure though, and some backpressure can add a lil low end torque, but it also will kill the top end on top end loving motors, like the BP's. I should have been lil more clear on my first post.

It could just be that you are accelerating at the same speed with less noise so you think your going faster? I just put a muffler on my car and it seems slower to me.I think it's because it makes more noise.
