you will loose some low end power but will make up for it in the upper RPM's.
I would runn twin turbo muffs for just a smudge of back pressure.
depending on how built your rig is...
and I second on the changing of the Jetting.

If you want back pressure and don't care about noise, get it by running smaller pipes. Mufflers create the wrong type of back pressure, as any backpressure is bad. What you should actually be looking for is a smooth flowing high velocity exhaust system that provides low enough back pressure at peak rpm, but still a high velocity at low rpm to pull exhaust out of the cylinders.
