No, the exhaust has a butterfly valve inside that lets you switch between open, closed and half open configurations. Guess it's used to deaden the sound when you want it.

That's pretty cool. I've thought about butterfly type diverters, but this is all in one muffler, so much easier and a wireless remote is pretty easy although, I'd prefer dash mounted as opposed to the key fob.

I wonder if someone could make a controller for economy too... closed on the low RPM for torque and open on the highway...

Google led me here :
