An engine exhaust reaction chamber system having an inner exhaust reaction chamber surrounded by an outer exhaust reaction chamber, the system having a partition plate means for preventing exhaust flow bypass through the outer exhaust reaction chamber positioned within the annular space of the outer exhaust reaction chamber. A guide plate may also be positioned within the annular space of the outer exhaust reaction chamber in order to separate the outer exhaust reaction chamber into first and second outer exhaust reaction chamber passages. Further, a middle exhaust reaction chamber may be positioned between the inner and outer exhaust reaction chambers, the middle exhaust reaction chamber also being provided with a partition plate in order to prevent exhaust flow bypass through the middle exhaust reaction chamber and being provided with a guide plate separating the middle exhaust reaction chamber into first and second middle exhaust reaction chamber passages.
