In theory doing this could adversely affect idle and low-RPM running because of the more pronounced effects of reversion. But does it flow better? I don't know. I tend to trust Paul Yaw's opinion on these matters, and he says it's a bad idea for reasons that make sense to me. But as someone on the other forum pointed out, Yaw's been wrong before.

so i take it this has been talked about before on the other site and people thought it was a bad idea and a good idea.


"Mine still idles like a V8 with a big cam"
thats how i explain my car.
since i put the racing beat exhaust system on m car. block off plates ect my car ides weird at times. when it hasn't warmed up enough yet my rmp goes up and down and souds like i have a crazy cam in the motor. once it warms up tho it stays at little below 1000k. also when i come off the high way it does it for like 30 secs.
