What you are describing is a “Gen-Turi” pipe, pretty standard equipment with most serious RV’ers. While it may help a little with noise, it is primarily made to get the exhaust above the roof of your RV so as not to poison your neighbors while in close quarters. Anyone who has ever been to the NASCAR races with their RV’s uses these.
