turbo exhaust

So I went to my local muffler shop for them to order me a catback. the guy looks at my car and tells me I already had 2.5'' piping he told me to get a turbo muffler which would get a better sound and the same if not more hp. so I went ahead and got it I felt a difference and the sound is great in my opinion heres a video of what it sounds like http://youtube.com/watch?v=yBjMFSmne7M

let me know what yall think

You think the GM exhaust is expensive? Go look at Corsa!

Why do they call it a "Turbo" muffler?

Yea, you just got BSed. A muffler does not give you more HP, just sound.

It will give you a little more flow than the stock "pork thigh" muffler.

I'm gonna assume you got it done at Kraft Street Muffler, if so what you got is the Flowmaster 40 "Original". I got the same one its decent. The only thing I don't like about that shop is that all they do is crush bends.
