It's pretty loud when you get in it, but at idle it's only slightly louder, as the comparison in the vid between the two shows.

Yep, well, 44.7mph to be exact officer! You can hear the tires spinning like crazy when I hit the gas.... to approach 44mph

I'm pretty sure that the "backpressure" issue is a carburation thing, in which case some backpressure is needed for the scavaging effect, and I don't think it is really relevant to fuel injection.

The difference you experienced at the track was probably minimal, and then nonexistent after driving several miles post-muffler delete. Your car adjusts to the slight change in exhaust flow but it is not immediate and takes a bit to adjust. As you see in my vid, you can observe an increase in smoke after the delete was done, but goes away after driving it a while; another temporary effect.
