Default I need help!!!!!!

Installed my 3" exhaust system hoping to pick up some more power. I'm going slower now! Lost 2 mph and .2 seconds in the quarter. The air was good too! I now have a slight miss at about 5500 rpm at wide open throttle in all gears too. I'm also getting alot of knock retard all over the place. My plugs are gapped at .035 and I just installed a new MSD coil. All the rest of the stuff I have done is in my signature. Any ideas? Thanksa alot. Ben.
