Listen to the sound clip at the end of that link. See when the revs are coming down you get that multiple popping sound. That's the noise I get when I put the baffle in my stubby. It sounds rubbish.

Don't think I'll bother trying anything with the standard can if that's the sound I'll end up with.

Clanger's looks good. I think curvy exhausts are nicer than pointy's though
