Almost anything you put in the way of an exhaust will reduce airflow and in most cases power. A hotdog is designed to reduce flow as little as possible whilst drop the sound down a little. What sort of car do you have? Generally if you have a turbo or supercharged beast then you want as big exhaust as you can fit or your ears will allow. This way you don't restrict the gases coming out of the engine. If your car is N/A then you have to tune an exhaust to the size of your engine and where it's power band sits. If your exhaust is to small then it will restrictive. If it is too big then you won't get enough back pressure which is needed to create vacuum and help suck out the exhaust gases.

If you go for good quality exhaust bits then flow should be kept high anyway. To tell anymore I would need to know what car and engine you have.
