Default X/H Pipe



I'm going with BBK's o/r H pipe or X-Pipe but when I go to Summit they call the X pipe a "off-road X-chamber mid pipe."</P>


Will these fir my shorty headers or do they need longer headers...</P>


Thanks for the help</P>

It says:</P>


"Add a dyno-proven 12-25 more horsepower to your engine's output. This BBK crossover pipe features an "X" chamber design, which allows exhaust flow to cross between the pipes with as little restriction as possible. The pipes are mandrel-bent from aluminized 2 1/2 in. diameter tubing and have OEM-style flanges."</P>


in the description... I think they should fit though it looks alright in the pic.</P>


Yet another question... When I put inthe shorties and x-pipe, it doesnt look like theres enough room for a cat back kit... is it just me or does it indeed fit coreectly. It seems like the tips will be coming out a mile... Correct me if Im wrong.</P>


Thanks</P>

It will all work out so long as you buy quality parts. if your getting a catted X pipe, BBK makes good stuff, and it'll fit just fine. You must also realize that the tips and stuff fit together, and the tips wont stick out far, they'll be real nice. If you havn't gotten headers yet, go for some FRPPs or BBKs or MAC, all good brands. I'm changing my exhaust to Magnaflow next year along with a nice X pipe.
