There is a plate basically that keeps backpressure in so you get more low end hp. At speed it begins to open giving you the high end hp.

I actually installed one on my 97 SE. I thought it was a smart move after installing my y-pipe, RT cat, and B-pipe. I figure after increasing the flow of the exhaust system, I'd be losing out on the low end. Seeing how I'm always driving on the low-end (especially in the city) I wouldn't want to lose power there. The 5th gen muffler is great; it's quiet, improves the low, mid, and top end (especially when you openned up the exhaust).
Actually, I'm surprised no other company OEM or aftermarket has improved on this yet.
