"This makes the engine extremely loud and, as you know, noise equals power."

LOL.

That is why ricers are so stupid.

If you think that is funny, you need to check out some older HotRod Magazine articles like:

CaddyHack
PontiHack

I think there was a Ford one too.

Thats my fav too... so many a ricer and redneck have no clue how backpressure works

the entire article was a parody of ricers. It was pretty funny. You should read some of the Q&As they have on SportCompact Car magazine. They really rip up the dumb readers. Oh and they have great technical articles as well.

It's from Sport Compact Car... great magazine.

The warranty is still applicable right?

What, are you going to say that you need backpressure for low-end torque?

LOL, no man that extra noise is like a pulse detonation propulsion for your car

I don't think you want any backpressure.. isn't a straight pipe going to give you the best power numbers at any rpm?

If there is backpressure, that means the engine is using energy to push the exhaust gasses out, and that is bad.

OMG that's freaking hilarious........a worthy repost cuz i haven't seen it yet...ahhahaha....

Backpressure (on streetable cars) is necessary to stop reversion or at least used to an advantage.

I also have trouble understanding the "backpressure" issue. I'd think that tuned headers with no mufflers would produce the most power out of any given engine.

Is there a site that I could visit that explains all this?
Thanks!

hahahaha, that last pic takes the cake

No backpressure means more horsepower yes - at the expense of some low end torque.
