Running Open Headers on a Speedmaster?

Before anyone bags on me for bringing up a subject that has been discussed, know that I did a search on the subject and wasn't able to find much specific to to open headers. So, you can also bag on me for not being able to run a proper search

Now that that is out of the way, I like the look of open headers and would like to run them on my recently acquired (actually tomorrow) '03 speedmaster. I realize they will probably be incredibly loud. I'm also aware that there is potential for back pressure problems. This what I'm worried about the most as I don't want to harm the engine. I know people have run open headers and I'm hoping to hear about their experiences as well as other problems they may have run into. Thanks for the replies!
