How does a chambered muffler work?

Chambered mufflers use internal chambers to produce a specific exhaust note. This design places Delta-shaped baffles within the chambers to produce a deep, distinctive exhaust note that will turn heads. Flowmaster also says the optimized exhaust flow created by the shape of the baffles will enhance power.
