With a full exhaust, the car will just not feel the same period. How much of a difference are you talking about here btw?

LOL. . . When I saw the title I thought this might be one of those "I switched from stock exhaust to 3" and it doesn't pull" threads, but instead it's this. This seems like a pretty predictable outcome from adding an exhaust.

Wow now stop and think to yourself Open downpipe or Cat back? If you went from OD to cat back you will lose some power its common sense.

PMK your comment was not called for. Anyways yea my car is running 3in dp with a full 3in exhaust. i also noticed that the muffler inlet that was on my car was only 2in, so i just left the exhaust shop and had them just cut the muffler off for now til i get a turbo muffler. the result was alot better it pulled alot smoother. also took a look at my boost gauge and i notice i lost like a 1-1.5psi of boost just from installing my exhaust.

Turn the boost back up! The back pressure from installing the exhaust is routing more exhaust out the wastegate.
