its header not headers its only one, not multuple. and are you talking about the Apexi PS revolution? in your title you state SPP muffler, but in the post you say SSP. the Apexi i'm sure doesn't drop your horsepower. why would they design i muffler to do that?

Is this a chambered muffler or a baffled straight through style muffler? Either way i doubt you're going to lose power (or gain anything) by switching to this over stock.

I dont expect you'd really lose anything. Most people really over-analyze their NA exhaust systems (as well as intake systems) on simple bolt-on setups. If you really want to get into it, you need to understand a few concepts: Delta flow, exhaust velocity, exhaust reversion, etc...at that point, you're really getting into it and looking to pick up every possible .1hp. Since you're not there, dont concern yourself with such minute details.
