Straight Pipe vs Aftermarket 4" Muffled

Is a stock straight pipe system as efficient as a muffled 4" aftermarket system? I have the stock system straight piped and was wondering if I would see any gains to go to like an MBRP 4" system

Thanks

The only thing going from straight pipe to a straight through muffler did for me was to change the exhaust tone. I was straight piped and really didn't care for the raspy sound when getting on it. I installed a 4" Dynomax Bullet Race muffler and it deepened the exhaust tone and no more raspy sound. I couldn't feel any difference in performance/throttle response.
