It doesn't.

It is the exit to the system.

What it will affect is the sound. The sould will more be louder than note change itself.

What affect performance is the muffler make up, internal pipe size and flow characteristic and also on delivery piping from the header to the muffler itself.

If you have a chance, check out turbomagazine.com for the muffler shoot out there had

Having a better flow does not mean good performance in general.

Sometime engines need a little back pressure (depending on vavle overlap), to get more bang out of the engine.
