That is a strange looking muffler. I see 8 holes facing back and what appears to be a removable end plate.
I believe that's a heat shield bolted to a small cylindrical muffler.
Doesn't look particularly quiet...
Oh, I'm sure it is part of the heat shield - especially since it is plated. That is just all I could see :)
..... and, no. It does not look particularly quiet. In fact, 70 db is most likely a long stretch if it is truly as small as it looks - sort of like the mufflers used on the water pumps, pressure washers, etc.
If you look at the zoom and cropped photo you can see the head pipe enter a small round vertical cylindrical metal muffler with a curved tail pipe at the bottom coming out the back.
I am still suspicious about a EPA/CARB product having some type of air injection or catalyst we cannot see.
