Here's a look at what the oem exhaust looks like after dissecting it . I'd say there's enough extraneous baffling and insulation to quiet even an old dump truck .

Hell, there's even an old WW11 German Panzerfaust operators glove in there too!!
I hope it didn't have the owners hand still in it...

Holy crap.
No wonder they're so heavy. I could insulate my fishing shack with all that!

Johnny D and others, Hi.
That library image of the opened up S exhaust, looks different to the image 'Crios' posted years ago. I can't see the separate chambers. I always doubted the flow direction he quoted and how drilling holes into the exit pipes before they leave the final chamber would achieve anything? Can anyone confirm. In theory we are lead to believe it does more or less the same thing as the PSE and allows gas to bypass the other two chambers. Really ?

This.....

Not sure how - if the gas came in from the left via the red arrow, how it could ever pass to blue? It would be more realistic if the red arrow was in the right and the gas flow from the right, then when the chamber was full, passed to the next chamber via the blue? My confusion is over how the holes that were suggested for drilling really change anything. To me its looks like the gas can only leave via the mustard arrow after being in the end chamber, and that the gas never really 'lives' in the middle chamber where the mod is proposed? Its not a big deal just interested. I have been viewing this sight everyday for about 6 months but never registered until today. I'm just a curious guy with a love for cars
