don't have the charts to back it up - didn't need it when I saw what happened when I added the silencer to my Tanabe Racing Medallion {extrememly similar design to the N1)
I dropped 8 peak hp!! No kidding. I do recall Sport Compact Car did do a test on a Blue Civic SI with that being the only mod{with AND without} the silencer. It was 2 years ago - I'll see if I can find the copy & scan it for you....
Hope this helps!

Okay - tooooo freak'n scarey that I knew where in the mag it was & what part of the page etc....found it in the 2nd issue I picked up February 2000 pg 142-159 (a full Civic SI buildup including supercharger). Page 147 has a graph comparing the A'pex to Mugen, but NO graph to compare silencer in/out.
Page 153 - first caption under a pic of the N1 muffler states:
The A'PEX N1 muller has this removable silencer that cut down noise dramatically, but also cut about 8 hp. Even with the silencer, it was slightly louder than the Mugen exhaust
To give you a feel - the TRM that I have is the 2nd loudest (emissions legal) Acura I've heard, but with the silencer in, it sounds like an otherwise stock honda w/AEM intake....
Hope that helps!

One asks the question "gain or loss?" when the answer had already been stated, "cut about 8 hp". I'm not a brain surgeon but cutting 8 hp would translate to a loss in hp. Furthermore, it doesn't make any type of sense how there would be again in hp by adding a more restrictive element to the exhaust, i.e. silencer.
