Default pypes O/R x or h

Okay so I have worked my butt off just to be able to afford this and I want to make sure I make the right decision. What will sound better between the x or h pipe. I have flow 40s on it now and they are too drone and I want to liven my car up. Ive looked at a million youtube sounds clips but my computer speakers sound awkward. I just want some opinions guys.

I have an O/R H pipe with Flowmaster American Thunder Axel backs. To me, it sounds amazing. It is loud but I love it. Everyone knows when I'm coming. I have this on my 08 GT. I have received nothing but compliments on my exhaust note.

This is video that made me go with the O/R H when I had my Flowmasters: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NpBfNtrVww

Here is another one:

That I am not sure about. I have a friend that has 40s and the sound is a little bit different; I prefer mine.

Sounds good. The H should not run you anymore than $150. Anymore than that and you are paying too much. It's also a very simple install if you have access to a lift, if not it is still simple. Let me know if you need anything.

Edit: Looking at Brenspeed's site it seems as if they raised the price to $170. Anyways, that's not a bad price. Jegs has one for $144. Also, if you do go Pypes O/R H I suggest you get the part where the "H" comes together welded once you receive it. It should not cost you more than $10-$30 to get it welded. It ensures that there are no leaks. However, don't get anything else welded so that you can simply unbolt it off and return to stock if anything.

Good choice on O/R H with the flows. I can almost guarantee you would have been disappointed if you went O/R X with your flows.
