Default UPR x pipe vs SLP x pipe

For the O/R x They look like they have the same design where the 2 pipe going to each other and make the x..do you think they will sound the same? Got on YouTube and found plenty of vids on upr but none with the slp so...they look identical ..so would they sound the same?

All x-pipes will sound the same. The only difference in sound, when it comes to mid pipes, is the shape (x, h, or pro-chamber) and if it has cats or not.

not true, any X with the "clamshell" design will sound like sh*t (BBK, etc), anything with a true X (Pypes, UPR, SLP, Summit, VRS, etc) will sound 1000X better...

FWIW i never had an issue with my Summit OR X on my 95, and it was like $95 shipped
