Man i'm just sayin :BLAA: None of these Fast guys seem to understand Back pressure!!!
Just a thought!,
Does a Top fuel funny car have back pressure, does any real high performance vehicle, such as a motogp bike have back pressure ? seems to me that all these top performers have 1 aim, get the exhaust gases out as soon as possible, that's why the exhausts are so short!
Just a thought
I'm pretty sure none of those fast guys are concerned about low rpm torque smooth throttle response in traffic and 0 to 60 times.
My biggest problem with the original post is that only mom-and-pop shops were contacted to support the "Fiction camp" and A professional, "knows-what-they're-doing" shop was contacted to support the "Fact camp". There are plenty of professional, "know what they're doing" shops the would support the fiction side of this pole.
My understanding is that the headers, or exhaust manifold, generate the necessary back pressure - so opening the exhaust after that has little effect.
So if my understanding of your proposal is accurate, then it should work.

It's very much a fact if you have not studied this topic please don't comment I think you are confusing the people who are asking, each cylinder has an out put once the exhaust valve opens and exhaust is forced out from the intake air on VVT or interference ((INTAKE DOES NOT FORCE OUT EXHAUST & adding Variable Valve Timing which our bike does not have is not helping to clear this matter)) engine the exhaust leaving through the headers ect allows a draft to form behind it like NASCAR the exhaust from the next cylinder that was fired now drafts of that backpressure is now created based on the resistance that this exhaust traveling experiences and this "fictional" (being a smart a$$) back pressure now creates a vacuum for the space in between the exhaust from each cylinder actually helps pull the exhaust out of the next cylinder that has its exhaust valve open so yea it's necessary the amount I don't know that's per application every engine is designed with this in mind and is meant to run around it I'm all for modding and slip ons will probably not really. Effect this so I wouldn't denounce getting some, where exactly this pressure is made is guess but don't know for sure the headers and prior to the cats I'd say don't mess with that stuff unless you don't care, ever see a muscle car with 4 inch exhaust and as the tool slams the accelerator his car backfires like a mofo I rest my case. ((that's about "tune" more often than not as the Primary and collector pipes are effective at higher output. Again - the picture depicted here is it doesn't work! But it wasn't meant too as its effective RANGE IS NOT from idle to 3000 RPM. Its from 4500 RPM up.))
