You wont go very fast, maybe not at all. You wont have enough backpressure. Take back the exhaust, if you can't take it back, give it to me  |

| exhasut size has nothing to do with engine size, its about air flow capability, which is directly related to hp. The more hp, the bigger the exhaust is needed. |

| actualy the reason yuo may lose power is not due to back presure. it is cause in an exhaust of that size you get lots of turbulence which slows the air flow lots |

| Hahah dont stress man, Put the exhaust on and it'll be fine but you'll have to get a different muffler so you have a bit of back pressure otherwise it'll run lean and burn out your exhaust valves |
