According to their website it is quieter than a glasspack, but louder than a Turbo style muffler.

Also flows almost the same as a straightpipe according to their chart

Seems to be a combination chambered muffler with fibreglass batting. Probably get louder once it burns the glass off and sizes/inlets/outlets look like a good selection. I might be interested in this whenever my current glasspack burns out on my 302....
