Default Lt's paired with shortie h or x?

I'm looking at getting lt's with in the next month, got a good price for the headers, shortie h mid pipe, install and adjustment to my BrenSpeed custom tune.
With the lt's will I have more hp/tq on the top end and the h help with the low end?
I went with the o/r x 1) for the sound, 2) because at the time every one was running a o/r h, 3) for the xtra umph up top.

With my Packs and o/r x she's loud in a good way and gets plenty of complements but the drawl of the lt is too great.

Which mid pipe do u like for lt's?

I'd get an x pipe just because thats the sound i like. Plus magnapacks are straight through mufflers and i kinda have this thing where i believe that straight through mufflers sound better with x pipes. But there are some setups that i like with the h pipes. But go with the x i'd say.

And to lizzy, Pepsi Now if youre talking cherry pepsi or cherry coke...cherry coke all the way lol

Pepsi FTW.... well not pepsi but pepsi products (mt dew)

anyways either one will sound good... u like deep tone like a muscle car or a raspier tone like a racecar...

i run an vrs shorty o/r x

other than sound preference the x will have a few hp up top and the h will have a few more tq down low. but performance is debatable.
