H-pipe vs. X-pipe
I was talking to a friend of mine the other day, and he reccommended me getting H-pipes for the 03 GT, instead of X-pipes. He said it will sound a lot better. What do you exhaust experts think? What is the best setup for a loud exhaust system? </P><edited><editID>03SVTcobraa</editID><editDate>37886.9675347222</editDate></edited>

OOhhh, I am elated that were experts lol...</P>
In general H-Pipes will sound better (louder) and give more low end torque</P>
X-Pipes will sound different, not as loud usually, and give more higher rpm hp</P>

X pipes will give more torque AND horespower. More horses than even open headers.

In summary:
open headers:max hp: 333 max torque: 304
2.5" w/ H pipe:max hp: 323 max torque: 296
2.5~3" w/ X pipe: max hp: 335 max torque: 302

I'd say it's safe to assume that an X pipe is the best cinfiguration period.

jeep... I think the h-pipe..reason being it acts like a bigger exhaust in a way that helps mild modded cars the x pipe and exhaust gases cancel one another is why for the lower tone is a good pipe for well modded car...just my opinion</P>
