RE: Exhaust without canister
No reason to. A proper exhuast cases so little extra packpressure.
That it will cause damage to the engine is a urban myth. I really wish Mythbusters would do that one. As long as you properly adjust your air/fuel mixture you could run open headers without damage. You probably won't see any gains because the rest of the motor (cams, intake/exhaust runners etc) were not tuned to run open headers.
And for the record, it isn't backpressure the engine needs, it's exhaust gas velocity. Backperssure = bad, Velociy = good.
