yes and no - some is required but like all things you can have too much
the proper way to tune is too start removing baffles ( or restricter plates - or shortening pipe ) until you notice the lack of low end torque then back up one setting ( at the same time you need to re jet and watch the plugs ) ( not a simple process )
to simplify remove baffles and watch for plug overheating ( you should be slighty rich at low and mid-range anyway so you don't lean out on top end ) you will find the mixture will be slightly leaner as you remove baffles

Back presure really starts to kick in more into mid-range. I know there is a company that sells baffles that you might check out. Believe the name is 'Big City Thunder'. I'm sure if you do a google search it will come up with their website.

Actually, yes.
Straight pipes, no baffling is only good for wide open, crank it to the stop power.Low/mid range needs some back pressure.
Also good is anti-reversion cones, as it stops/reduces burnt exhaust gases from reentering the combustion chamber.
