does anyone have any dyno proof that tq is lost with too little back presure?

Here is the nitrous run I never posted. Since the juice was cutting on and off, the ET was slow. The MPH wasn't bad though.

At the strip my 60" times fell to 2.6s due to more tire spin, and I gained an average of 3-mph with my cutouts open vs. my cutouts closed. Thats with no stall, so I dont think it hurt my low end torque.

No Back Pressure = Less Torque, is a Myth.
Its all in the tune, If you tune for an open exaust, you will see greater HP and torque.
If your truck is tuned with the exhaust in place and then you open the cutouts, the tune will be off and you have the potential for lost torque and HP depending on how far off it throws your A/F ratio.
Thats what its all about.
