Low End Power Loss W/ Bigger Exhaust?

I Have Installed A Dezod 2.75" Exhaust On And Am Not Sure I Feel The "off The Line" Power I Did B4 I Put It On, Top End I Feel It More But Was Wondering If Anyone Else Noticed This?

Nothing wrong with it as long as you are planning big hp numbers

People say for our motors, the best diameters are 2.25 and 2.50. Anything above that we're suppsoed to feel a top end loss unless you hav ea whole bunch of mods.

Thats pretty standard with most motors. Less backpressure means less low end torque, but more power up top. There's always a trade off.

Velocity=Torque
AirMass=HorsePower


faster moving air seems to make more torque, which is what gives you that down low grunt, slower moving air with more air, makes higher HP numbers, the air moves slower so it takes longer to build power.
