Default Muffler whistler fitted..Is it ok or will cause engine problem?

Hi racers,just wondering if it is a good thing i did about fitting a muffler whistler in the exhaust? It gives the sport whistling sound of the turbo everytime i accelerate but the only thing that i am worried about is that it also covers 95%of the exhaust opening.Will the engine choke if not enough carbon is expelled ?I'm a bit scared that the engine blows with that.I didnt drive yet after fixing it,just checked if it was working by switching on the engine and reving up and down from 2rpm to 5rpm..The turbo sound given from the muffler is amazing...anyone to advice me on this please? Cheers

It's not gonna hurt your motor... only your reputation. But, if you like it; rock it. Get a sound clip up.

If it covers that much of your exhaust Its going to hurt yourhp.I don't know if it will hurt anything else, besides your pride.

That andI get to call you a poser

Hahaha that's great. I love how near the end the dude almost wrecks trying to show off. If you like it man, keep it, but I'm not sure many other people will like it.
