prob cause you need a tune to get gains out of them. and plus test pipes moves your torque curve higher in the RPM range. you will be faster top end but daily it will be slower.

And you know this how, seat of the pants? Having little restriction in your exhaust system you've lost low end torque and from my experience you're running extremely lean. An Osiris tune will correct where the torque comes in and you'll continue to f'up the air we breathe!
