No, if you don't have serious upgrades, it is a step down because you lose back pressure. You also happen to get worse gas mileage in some cases.
Since you lose back pressure, exhaust can actually leak back in to the cylinder while the exhaust valve is still open.

Absolutely wrong! You will not lose power if you disconnect the exhaust.
But since you brought it up. Typically, yes you will lose some power.

Click on the my videos link in my sig. My invidia vs stock video has a short clip of my s2k with open header to get an idea of how it sounds.
To put it blunt, it sounds like one of those civic engines with no exhaust.
