OEM exhausts are good silencers

They do work to an extent. It depends on your loca dB laws. If you have a ricey muffler to begin with it probably wont quiet it down to not noticeable levels.

a turbo muffler is more likely going to be straight thru design which is what i have (mines a twin loop straight thru)

unless of course, it's just the name. idk, 55 bucks wouldnt seem like the muffler would have a big canister and that is what you are looking for such as RSR and Remus exhaust.
