Yeah i just disconnected my muffler and exhaust tips. They were still held on my the hangers and there was a 2 inch gap between where the two pipes and the gaskets would meet. Sounded really good but i did feel a huge loss of horsepower.

It's all your head then. I've dynoed with the full exhaust and with the muffler removed as you describe, on the same dyno on the same day and saw absolutely no measurable difference. One was just a fck ton louder.
