Wow, big pictures is right. No idea from the pictures, need a broader view to start.
Is it just me, or does it look like the muffler is completely bypassed? Assuming the car is quite loud and raspy?

Yeah my apologies for that, I'll try to get some better pictures shortly. But it passed emissions and the car was actually kind of quiet, at least to me since I had a borla exhaust on my old one!

Muffler is to decrease noise level, it has nothing to do with emissions, unless you want to consider the packing absorbing some pollution. 
Get a full picture of a muffler, and also underneath of the mid-pipe if you can. See if they changed out that also. Is it an H or X pipe?

here you go, don't have a clue myself... they do appear to be designed similar to corsa xtremes where the pipe doesn't flow completely through the muffler and the tips look almost exactly like my corsa xtreme tips, however that doesn't appear to be a corsa system

Is that an open crack on the right side of the lower picture or just a shadow?
