Yeah, so I was looking on ebay for a muffler. And I stumble upon this:

What is the purpose of this? ...never seen it before. It reminds me of that intake tornado contraption thing... :lmfao:

Maybe I'll be able to more effectively release my exhaust on to cars behind me. :goodjob:

difference compared to something simliar with a straight through would probably be minimal...I'm guessin'. Price is more important to me and this one is good at that.

I think it my be a way to keep the straight through muffler but make it quieter. maybe

i have no idea why they would make thi, the purpose that they are looking for IE a quicker exhaust routing and the spinning affect to create a vortex, but that would truly only be beneficial starting ALOT sooner than the muffler

its so the muffler flows better. instead of the air just going through randomly, they create that to keep the air organized-ish.

I dunno, couple this with the JDM perfect exhaust tilt and we might have a winning combo here. :screwy:

I made the same thing on my headlights, the swirl effect makes the light spin like a torpedo or rifle effect and project out with the sharpness and cutoff like real HID's. :goodjob:
