Post the dyno if you can. Larger intake and exhaust can decrease low end torque because their larger size makes them more suitable for the greater air flow at high rpm, making more torque up top. The larger piping reduces the velocity of the air at lower engine speeds.

A good solution for a loss of low end torque is forced induction.
