Looks pretty and if sourced from a cheaper vendor probably a good buy for a SS muffler. But their science is a bit slack..
Wheither or not there is a true venturi effect at the "Air foil" cone the pressure drop would be slight at best because the gas velocity bypassing iwould be very close if not the same as entering the cone. And if there is a slight pressure drop it would only be at the first row of louvers. (can't bring myself to call them jet intakes) not the full length of the perforated section. As far as "turbine spin" can't see any thing to generate or cause, no fins or vanes and the louvers are not angled.
Bet the ricers will love them, a SS fart can with AERO embossed on it.
To cause spin in the gas flow there is no need for a turbine wheel, fixed fins or vanes would do, but what would it accomplish.
There has been other muffler designs similar. One I remember, core perforated or slotted, small opening in front end of core and full size at the exit end. The annular flow is restricted at the exit end causing a positive pressure in the annulus establishing flow from the annulus through core slot. IIRC it too was called "AERO". Decent as a performance muffler but materail quiality sucked. Did not last long.
I wasnt seeing the turbine wheel creating spin, I was seeing the benefit as the fins themselves blocking, disrupting the sound waves, as they seem to do on trubocharged engines.
Im not thinking enhanced exhaust flow, Im thinking in terms of sound manipulation.
It requires energy to make something move; this energy MUST come from someplace, in this case it will have to be taken from the exhaust gases. This ABSOLUTELY MUST result in the gases slowing down.

sure, we cant forget that most mufflers inhibit exhaust flow, not encourage.
now if you think outside fo an assumption and imagine this moving object(s) as not having tight tolerances to the wall of the ?? housing, then the force would be decreases if not minimal, with appropriate design. with each turn, each new vane or "paddle", would or I would think, reflect a certain amount of sound ??.
More easily done with simpler methods. Sound reflection is the whole concept of Flowmaster and similar designs. What you are thinking of will not work like you think it will, nor have any performance benefit over a normal muffler. Therefore pretty pointless, IMO. Yes, a turbo muffles the sound. But mufflers do it better. Get a stock muffler designed for a modern SUV or truck and it will be low-restriction and quiet.
Thinking outside the box is all well and good, but sometimes things aren't done a certain way for a reason.
:rolflmao: Seems to be made from a pancake fan off the back of a computer.
Exhaust gases impinging on any turbine or paddle wheel will creat noise in itself. Volume, quality, pitch, who knows, but it won't be L-6 or V-8 in nature. Probably something like a intralabial fricative.
This is just a rip of a product that was being flogged a decade or more ago.
Real boostrap stuff in this one and a total disregard for conservation of energy as taught in basic physics. It's a bit like a paddle wheel that makes it's own flow to rotate.
