How is the Hahn catback on an N/A car? Is the 3in too big, like is there a very noticeable loss in low end power? Or is the High RPM benefit worth it?

I need to bookmark this page to look at after seeing some of the base model Cobalts that show up and some of the local car cruises. Better yet, maybe print it out to show them what tasteful looks like.
