Does an increase in airflow (intake or exhaust runner) move peak torque up or down the RPM band?

Like I said, full exhaust system, as in exiting the rear of the car. Also agreed that most header collectors are tuned to the short side. The way to tune extensions is to put a stripe of marker paint on them and trim them off where the paint stops burning off after making a pass. The point where the heat drops drastically in an exhaust system is were extra tubing starts fouling out the scavenging.

I did that 50 plus yrs ago on my hemi car, didn't help at all , my problem was always hooking it up on my budget ---14 and 16" slicks/s.s springs on a piss poor track.
