True on my part. When I have the silencer on my car, I felt more trq and a better low end pull in 1st, 2nd, 3rd (it felt like the stock exhaust). Without the silencer, she actually feels better uptop, the trq below isnt there as much and she pulls harder in the higher RPM's.

I already locked one of your posts. I told you it doesn't matter. IF you really want to know, then get it dynoed. "feeling" hp and torque is crap.

only thing the silencer does is just make your exhaust quieter.
