Larger doesn't necessarily mean better though. I've seen 540/740 stock mufflers cut in half and gutted, and I'm surprised how restrictive they are. The 4.8's could be more restrictive for off the line grunt due to the fact that they are larger and maybe have more chanmbers, so maybe 4.6 mufflers are better for midrange/hi-end power since they're smaller and potentially have less chambers....just guessing here. That's all i'm trying to figure out.
