That is what the tangential muffler does or is supposed to do. Can't comment on "anechoic' until I find my dictionary but the basic strategy you have outlined is what we are after. Jerry

Just to stir things up...     It seems that with exhaust systems, the exhaust consists of two parts which should be handled differently.    Part 1 is the exhaust gas flow which we want to flow out with little restriction.   Part 2 is the exhaust pulse which we try to attenuate, breakup, etc.     These two are like the difference between wind and sound-waves.      In the past 24 hours or so, I've been wondering about using anechoic chamber principles to attenuate the pulse.      I have a specific layout in mind which should tend to attenuate the pulses while not interfering with exhaust gas flow.     Anybody hear of such a thing?
