Dont get a BB4! Yes you will loose power and look like a cock! I always compare them to slags arseholes!

If you insist on Peco get the BB2 or the Twin Pipe! Still pretty wank though!

why does it make the engine lose power?

something to do with airflow/gas expulsion - its got a fat end so the gas doesnt escape it kind of chokes the backbox (hence the noise) - this means the engine cant shift the gasses and you get a blockage (kind of).

Thats my understanding.

I dont think you'dd notice that much of a diff on power though with a 1ltr.
