its not a proper silencer, it might a bit of difference, usually the box is there in an attempt to look like it still has a cat

silencers that have a correctly packed outer box and a baffled inner pipe do not restrict gas flow, just slows it down slightly.

That is a silencer, it has baffles inside the pipe.
