i wouldn't say that you are losing power - but you will be losing hearing! lol

i had my one cahmbers dumped - and later on put the tails back on... maybe with a quieter muffler i would have left it

i had heard some where that in order to be "effective" flowmasters need an 8 inch pipe after them. do this make any sense?

ive heard you loose some torque because of a loss of backpressure. on my 67 i had my exhaust runnin out the back till i re-did it and had it dumped. i lost alot of low end torque but it made more power at about 5-6k rpms. could have been from my valvetrain goin out, but it was still noticible. it sure sounds nice to have dumps when youre in the car....you cant hear s h i t
