[QUOTE="nikhsub1, post: 1127340, member: 22952"] Mfgrs are always having to compromise... I have not seen the Raptor's exhaust in person myself yet so I can't really give commentary on why they did what they did but you can be sure it was a compromise of cost, sound and performance. Those intake baffles are surely to perform some function, it looks like they would create some sort of swirling venturi. Usually 'turbo mufflers' are after the turbo and generally cause no measurable performance hit - their intent is to quiet the turbo noises and a lot of guys to remove them and replace them with larger piping. It is actually quite surprising that your Raptor is so loud without mufflers - cats are the best mufflers usually, this gives me hope that Ford actually used a quality cat. I would love a shot of the downpipes if anyones got any... [/QUOTE]
