Back pressure is created in the exhaust system, depending on your engine, if you lower the pressure you may lose performance too. For example, on a 1.2 8v, putting in a decat will sometimes make the car hesistant, as these engines are dependant on BP.

However, most BP is created at the catalytic convertor, so unless you have a decat too, I can't see there being much of a problem. People told me I'd lose pressure with my cat back system, but if anything, car seems to have improved.

Hope this helps :thumbs:
