i got more power from the x pipe in my setup...by like 13 ***** and a little bit more in torqe also, not much but it was a plus both ways with the x pipe....and also to me it sounds better

I have an off road x pipe (Bassani) with the Borla Stingers and it sounds great.
My mileage went up around 1-1.5 mpg after ditching the cats.
It is loud though, my friends at work say they can hear me coming from 3 blocks away.
I personally don't like Pypes midpipes, they are of lower quality, but other people here say they're alright.

Any X-pipe set up will give you more of a "raspy" tone whereas the H-pipe will give you more of a deeper rumble. I ran both and liked the h-pipe set up better. However if you're going cat-less, be prepared for failing emissions and getting a lot of popping when decelerating. its nothing to worry about just nothing preventing the back pressure with the cats being removed.
+1 on the pypes being a lower quality brand. I have them now and I'm selling them just because I keep having exhaust leaks from the collectors, get a good set of midpipes (i.e. MAC, Hooker, JBA or Magnaflows).

I had the offroad X on my Roush and it sounded wonderful and it was faster than the C300 with cats and J pipes. +1 on the emissions.....your state better not have inspections [8D]

yea they dont check emissions here so thats not a problem.. i was going to purchase the H pipe from brenspeed since i already have the tunes.. and i get a free tune to shut off the check engine light.. the problem is.. i am told that the H pipe is now a 4 piece.. and they say that causes alot of exhaust leaks.... it used to be a more solid 2 piece.... what dou guys think?>
