Default Exhaust heads up

If anybody is like me and just pulled your muffler off because you cant afford exhaust then this is a heads up on the backpressure....I was afraid I had lost too much backpressure doing this...so...I crawled under the car and put 1 piece of steel wool in the pipe..then it kept blowing out so I drilled two screws into the hole to keep it in place and took her out for a test drive....lost power....muffler off is better in this case....maybe half of a thing of steel wool or maybe just a 90 degree bend would give you just the right amount of backpressure...but after that and losing power ima just leave mine alone with the muffler off...OH but i left the two screws so nobody can shove something up in my exhaust pipe LOL
