ANALOGY: car exhaust system = tuned pipe
...so, unlike a trombone where pipe "length" is adjusted to coincide with the desired "frequency" (musical note), the exhaust system stays the same length as the engine rpm varies between idle and maximum rpm...and, thus goes through a series of "in/out phases" in the process...where sometimes engine breathing is "helped" and sometimes the engine breathing is "restricted."
