Should I go with an X or H pipe? I've got true dual straight pipes and am wanting to cut back on the pop but everyone says go with an X but I've read that an H pipe would make it louder and better for low end torque? Any help will help!

P.S. im looking for a deep smooth aggresive sound with little to no pop


Thanks,
Justin

Go with H. You'll most likely need a shop to fabricate one up for you :waytogo:

I'm curious to this now..

Why is a H pipe better than a X pipe, when a X pipe helps scavenging alot more than a H pipe...

in the last 7 years I have not seen one aftermarket catback come with a H pipe, They all come with a X setup..

not really better per 'se, but H pipe, if installed correctly, helps low end where X pipe helps the big end...and on these, we need all the lowend we can :)
