Default silencer the same as a muffler?

was just looking around, and saw someone mention a silencer.

i was just wondering if this is quieter than a regular muffler of if its just the same thing with a different name.

Also what is the quietest muffler out there for a .12 or .15 engine? and could i get a link to it....thanks

Silencer is the English word for the US word muffler. Don't know why we use the word, not like they ever make your exhaust silent!

The composite (plastic) HPI pipe is reasonably quiet.
