Have an 01 gt that is blown. It has long tube headers and 3"exhaust with a x pipe. It has flows with 2 1/2" tips. Is the 3" exhaust helping or hurting

Read a lot of stuff about back pressure. But also saw some dyno sheets from another car and looks like it really doesn't affect it.

I was told not so long ago that on forced induction cars back pressure is a non-issue.
