I use the 'competetion' style. The inner diameter is slightly bigger. 5 ring unit. I measured a 6 dB sound decrease and no rpm (power) loss at WOT compared to straight wet exhasut. Other slip in silencers reduced the sound the same amount but choked the motor 300-500 rpm at WOT. This was with a stroker small block and 4" thu hull exhaust.

The problem came up because I did dry exhaust and water exits last inch of the tail pipes . Now SS marine suggest it that I go full dry with water exit from another outlet and never meet exhaust .
Since the tailpipes are about 2-3 inch from the waterline I was thinking adding rubber flappers and the back plus these inserts so that water coming in will hit the rings before going all the way up to the raisers.
What you think ? I think it helps slowing waves from entering aggressively in the tips

Hard to get a good comparison of sound between the Baja and Scarab. Baja has an open swim platform and the Scarab has a solid platform. Solid one holds the sound down to the water and then under the dock.
