But you also have to consider that in that Magnaflow muffler, the exhaust gas does have to make a 180° turn. However in many other performance mufflers they have to do much more than that. Turbo style mufflers are usually two 180° turns. Chambered mufflers essentially have a few walls that the exhaust gas goes into.

Oh, and it should be noted that Magnaflow uses the 14210 muffler in their exhaust kits for all off the Corvettes 1997 to current.
