Dumped Exhaust

A friend of mine just got flowmaster dumps on his '05 extended cab. I have an '05 four door with the exact same engine. I want to get the same exhaust because the quality is outstanding, but from what I understand dumps are a bad decision because you get no back pressure and your gas mileage goes to ****. I just want some second opinions before i do it.

There must be back pressure because that is some what of a muffler, now running straight pipes would give you no back pressure. I'm sure your mileage would be better aswell.

They would be loud SOBs, just do it!
