Torque

Ensit Mike · April 16th, 2007, 03:54 AM

Ever sence i installed my loudmouths i feel like ive lost alot of torque. Anyone experiance this and is this maybe due to a lack of backpressure or am i just being over sensitive.

U very well could have lost some torque, but sometimes what really happens is people hear the new sound and with the car being much louder but no real sensation of more pure power, they feel like torque is less when in fact it really isn't. Basically the brain over thinking.

I had a similar situation when I did the exaust on mine (went from stock to only doing cat back), I went as far as returning to the dyno to see if there was any differences. The car was making a little more torque and a little more HP, yet I felt like it was slower.

+1..... You expect more "bite" with more "bark". More than likely, just a psychological thing.
