Check this one out for data on exhaust augmentors.
Lots of excellent data. Much money and time was spent so I would
copy the geometry exactly if I were doing it.

The fish mouth shape on the tip of this exhaust pipe is known to quiet a
internal combustion engine. You need to beef it up however as a rotary
is known to destroy these sorts of nozzles. My guess is 1/8th inch thick SS
sheet would be a minimum.
