Default What will these pipes do?

I have a set of 5Zigen Fireball Megas on my GS. Of course we all know they are just mufflers and have no piping whatso ever... Just curious who has this on their car and if it made a difference?

This is similar to the megan y-pipe correct? Or is this more of the back half of the exhaust?
