Before and after dynos for axle-back exhausts?

OK, I know the HP gain from any exhaust is going to be minimal, about 3-4 HP, but I wanted to see the effect of the Comptech exhaust on the torque curve since I kept hearing that it causes us to lose low-end torque. Is this true? And if so, is the effect on our lower end noticeably bad? I'd hate to lose low end power b/c that's what you use most of the time.

I don't think anyone here has ever dynoed the CompTech exhaust in a true, Before and After comparison. One member had his car dynoed stock, and then redynoed over month later after adding the exhaust and removing his resonator. That is not a good comparison though.

Yeah, I didn't think anyone would have done this yet. But do people feel any less power in the lower rev range from the exhaust?

I don't either ...in fact, I felt that my car seems to rev just slightly quicker.(better exhaust flow) BUT, I also had 2 1/2" tubing installed from the cat back to the "Y"
