My guess is less backpressure. Mackey always told me our cars were engineered to have a certain amount of backpressure.
I definitely lost horsepower going by the numbers at the track. Don't know about a torque loss, but the loss was worth the better sound and since I only lost 1-1.5 mph in the 1/4 I can live with it since I'm still turning the same times.
