They look similar to a glasspack or just a resonator. I'm sure they sound good though.

If you read the first link, it is apparent that these are NOT mufflers in the traditional sense. They are inserted in the pipes themselves, like baffles used in motorcycle pipes, yet they are not really baffles either. If they work as claimed, it would be a great way to add HP and sound, while reducing weight and saving some bucks over the cost of hi-po mufflers. I know this outfit from their motorcycle exhaust systems, which are highly regarded. Since the name of the company is CAR Chemistry, I must assume that their automotive products are their main concern and therefore the more advanced of their line.

A bunch of Cobra replica guys have used them with good success....put at the inlet of "Glass Pack" type side pipes they control excessive noise and don't seem to hurt performance?? I have never heard them personally but considered them for my Cobra before I found a fabricator to make my side pipes!!:bows:

The best part is you can get the 3 disk one and back it down to 2 disks for more sound......Maybe someone here will try them and report back??:confused:
