DO NOT DO THAT AGAIN!!!! that is not a good thing to do bro.... it is doin that specifically cuz u have no pipes on it and ur engine has no back pressure, or very little, it is not good for your motor.... have u ran it with the rest of the exhuast on it yet??

No exhaust will kill alot of low end power but won't hurt anything. Not having the oxygen sensors hooked up will probably kill more power.
