I see that and its an interesting concept. Cars like the new Corvettes use something similar and open up to straight pipes at higher rpms. I just dont think our engines sound like anything special running just headers.

On the other hand, I ran headers for a bit on a 57 Chevy with a 383 stroker. That motor sounded like sex with just headers. And a BJ with 4" straight pipes.
