Maxspeed is introducing a new muffler right now if you check their blog. He talks about overcoming the resonance issue with this new design. It looks similar to the old one but I suspect there are extra baffles or a cross pipe to cancel out those nasty waves.

He sells good stuff so it is worth checking out.

EDIT: I see he has it posted with the muffler for sale now, so it must be baffles as there is no pipe. After watching the video and having had the original version of this muffler I can see that this is the case as you can see the exhaust during the first part and it is isn't coming out like a jet engine. The first one was like that because it was a straight through design.
