What's been done to this exhaust to make it special? Is it incorporating a Hemholtz resonator design like Motordyne is using for G/Z "ART" test pipes?

I use my 1/2" Craftsman almost exclusively. If I've got the room, it's the one I always grab, especially when doing suspension, exhaust, etc. You've to to have a 3/8" rachet though.
