My limited understanding is that they increase torque figures.

On a bog standard car would a 'OEM material' equal length system be louder than the unequal OEM system?

You do lose the burble.... and normally used on high hp cars....
I found mine quieter than equal... till 4k then the civic sound cuts in...

Does make a car sound good

I love the sound of my equal length manifold, wasn't sure about it at first losing the burble but I wouldn't go back now, in fact totally gone off the original burble sound.
