......until you pull the piston once it blows up and realize that maybe you should have re-jetted it too!
Not sure what difference chopping a silencer will make, the noise - well, that's self explanatory - less length, less packing = more noise, I'd think it might have a slight impact on back pressure which may make the bike run leaner thus the slight increase in power....therefore, my comment above because if it's TOO lean....kaboom!!!
