[ "you need backpressure to make power". This is not true. What is needed is velocity.]

This taken from the incognito sticky in this section, the title of which says nothing about exhaust. Anyways, it's very good info and worth reading.

Dude says velocity is achieved by having a pipe system that's just large enough to support your ci and hp. Some of the info may be relative to gen 1 sbc.
