They will allow more mixture in to the chamber to be burnt, but the ratio for compression will not change. I don't think.

High flow pipes will need bigger jets as they allow more air / fuel mixture to be drawn into the engine. If you don't jet up you go lean and go bang.
Anyone else care to comment?
