Leaving the caliper in place it appears to require a deep-well socket, which would prevent me from attaching a hose to the bleeder screw and make a mess in general. I assume you can bleed these off the hub pretty easily.

Plus, if its so loud you don't want to go WOT, then you in effect DO have powerloss.

No doubt with a lot of iteration. I'm certain there's a perfect combination of sound suppression and power out there. Another idea concocted was to run the exhaust to a muffler on one side of the car and then have it loop around and run to the other side of the car where it goes through another muffler.
The car being loud won't bother me. I just know some tracks have sound intensity requirements as low as 92 dB.
