It also had the largest body, which is also a factor. But if you compare similar sizes like the 17734 and Cyclone Turbo, the straight-through Borla did better in backpressure and 1/4 mile ET.
The chambered flowmasters were all on the low end of performance. Supertrapps are kind of their own animal since they're essentially a tunable tailpipe. Not sure what the AP Xlerator or discontined CVX muffler designs were like inside.
