When you say test pipe are you refering to taking a pipe in place of your cat?
Basically your looking a one or two hp increase maybe. That is according to the smarter people around here.
Not really worth the time or effort and yes you would still enough back pressure.

It will probably give you some decent gains if you already have some serious mods. But can you imagine what's gonna happen if you get caught without a catalytic converter?
