Silencer and Engine Health

Hello all!

I am a proud owner of a 2013 XT660Z Tenere, and this is my first post, hope to find and share great info in this forum

Ok so my question is the following...I have a Dominator exaust on my Tenere, with the stock bdkiller that comes with it, which almost does not silence the motorbike.



I ordered their "Hard" dbkiller, and it does change the sound A LOT which is great for my commute days.

However, from looking at the exhaust dbkiller and the sound it delivers now, I see it is blocking immensely the air going out, could this cause any engines problem, or I can be relaxed about it?

The top one on this picture the hard DB killer, the photo does not shoe but the tube is blocked meaning air flow is only trough the tiny holes.



This video shows also the db killer in more detail:
