Has anyone put on a straight through chambered muffler like these www.classicchambered.com/classic/products.html on an Aveo, or other tuner (4-banger) cars. I'm wondering if it would make the car sound more musclear. I know these on late model V8's sound like '60's muscle cars.

That is what you would call a glasspack. What they do is take that and put it in a housing and then surround it with fiberglass. I sounds really good but will harm your engine. It creates a pocket of hot air that in turn gives you no backpressure and intern calapses the rings around the pistons in the combustion chamber. WILL KILL YOUR MOTOR AND YOUR WARRANTY.

they may have gained 100hp+, but look at the one specific car it was in. It wasnt even a real cobra, it was a kit car so who knows what was in it!

What are you talking about? Pockets of hot air? Collapsing piston rings? This will do non of that other than probably making your car sound bad and loud. Backpressure is simply a term for exhaust flow retention. A motor with no exhaust manifold may burn valve seals, but who runs a car without a manifold? Not trying to be an not a very nice person, but what you said is just plain wrong.
