I don't think so, but even if it did lose some, it would be minimal. Plus the sound would more than make up for it. :seeya

I just bolted on the XR-1 last week and didn't notice any difference at all. And I would definately have to agree that the sound is fantastic and definately would make up for any loss in toq! :cheers:
