Default mac prochamber

I just recently put an offroad MAC prochamber and loss way too much low end torque. Of course it sounds better, but I think it's too much of a trade off for the loss. Any one have any suggestions?

Yeah, take it off if you're not happy with it.

FYI - I love mine and did not lose anything down low.

You'll lose some low end with an o/r but it is made up later in the powerband. This should not be a drastic amount tho. Powerwise, prochambers are supposed to offer all the benefits of an h and x. Maybe the loss is in your head.

I noticed a little loss of power on the lower end with my prochamber, but it more than makes up for it up top.....like a bat out of hell actually! ha ha ha

Would an aftermarket catback with the prochamber help improve torque? I still have the stock mufflers on.

Since I put mine on, I havent noticed any low end loss. I have LM1s and have to watch my rearview all the time.lol.... so I really haven't got on it. Its loud. louder then I was ready for. Guys at work say it sounds like a ticket, so I find myself babieing it. I'll ask my wife if she has noticed any loss. She drives my car like she stole it.
