"An absolute must for the perfectly styled Corsa is a rear silencer. As an eye-catcher, with chrome finish rectangular twin tail pipes, it underlines the whole Corsa styling concept. Extraordinarily hard-wearing, thanks to the use of only the highest quality raw materials in its production, it reduces the build-up of exhaust gases thereby providing enhanced performance." - Irmscher Catalogue - Is is true that it reduces the build-up of exhaust gases  ? or its just bulls*it?

A reduction in exhaust system back pressure can make the engine produce higher bhp higher up in the rpm range.
