Well, I can confirm that the sound level in the cockpit is significantly
louder too, without a muffler.

A guy on the ground said it's not louder than a Lycoming with straight
pipes.

Due to space limitations I had to join the two headers close to the
ports (about 7 - 8 inches). The header pipes are 1.75" expanding into 2"
and continuing in a 2" stainless steel flex tubing out the bottom of the
cowling.
