That's a SLIMLINE muffler. It is identical to the Slimline on my Brison 2.4. I believe the engine in the pic. is a Brison also. If it is the "quiet" Slimlne the exhaust pipes go all the way to the other side of the muffler ( detectable by 2 little bumps ) and the pipes inside the muffler are drilled full of holes. This arrangement is supposed to be a baffle of sorts. It does nothing for the noise but it does choke the exhaust off and lower power output.

It does have the two little bumps on the other side. It is quite loud!

I have gotten tired of everyone at my club complaining about the noise of mine ( I am one of 2 guys with gas engines ) so this is the muffler I just bought from J'Tec. I haven't tried it yet but it has to be quiet. I spoke to a guy one time that had the Slimline muffler on a Brison 2.4 and he swapped it for a Bisson. He claimed he picked up 500 rpm's put on a larger prop and found it also quieter. I think part of the reason it is so noisey is that the clyinder part of the muffler is so small. The one I bought from J'tec is almost twice the size plus it has the 2 after mufflers on it.

Here's the J'tec
