airflow/physics question
Scenario:
i changed my exhaust set-up on my FD. after changing, my EBC dropped from 10psi to 7-8 psi. I had the BC re-learn and everything is back to normal.
does the evidence of the boost controller dropping boost, point to increased exhaust restriction or decreased?.....
after i see a few responses, ill tell you the reason im curious.....

well your answers are kinda what i was afraid of! lol
i removed my stock cat-back in favor of RB dual tip, version 1. it sounds great! quieter than stock!, and feels a little faster....but that quiter than stock part probably explains my little question.
see, the trick is, my OEM cat-back muffler was so rusted through,top and bottom, the only thing i can come up with, is that it actually flowed better than the RB@! which is probably why its also quieter. The stock one sounded like a jet taking off by the time you got into the secondary.......wooooooOOOOOOSSSSSHHH! SERIOUS airflow noise from the rear....it was actually quite cool! lol.
so given my BC reaction and what you guys have concluded.....i may have made my car slightly slower with an aftermarket exhaust! haha
