Back-pressure and N20 - good or bad?

I've been considering on putting a cutout on the TA - I haven't yet, becuz I went with a FM series 30 and it sounds great.

My question is, when spraying is muffler-induced backpressure better or worse for n20? Will the open dump be better for the 100-125 shot?

Back pressure is nearly always "bad". Have you ridden in a car with a cutout though? To my ears, it's painfully loud.

yes, my lt1 Z28 had the cutout right before the rear axle and it the resonance within the car was horrible. I also lost alot of lowend torque - but then again, i hear so many good things about the lid and cutout combo on ls1's that i am still tempted to get one.
