    A smaller muffler than stock.

    Will a smaller than stock muffler cause more backpressure? The smaller muffler is about 6 inches shorter and it has a wide-open flow. Just need info on the backpressure.

    depends on the inside of the muffer. you said its a wide open flow so it'll probably lower backpressure, oem mufflers are pretty restrictive. what kind is it?

    not sure, it was a freebie from a friend. There's no logo on the muffler, but you can see right through it.

    If the muffler is straight through and same size as the rest of the exhaust, regardless of its length, it will not cause any backpressure.
