Shawn: Probably not in the case of an M, but on racing engines - yes. In the case of nascar stockcars, for example, they use a cross-over pipe between the two headers to create a little back pressure, which in turn, helps with low end torque. Not too important at a super speedway like Daytona or Talladega, but very important at short tracks and road course tracks.
