cheepee x-pipe worth it
I just pulled the hammer on some GTB's >>> is it worth getting the x-pipe with it - just the cheapee one off of eBay?? http://cgi.ebay.ca/05-09-Ford-Mustan...#ht_6791wt_760 ................ TIA
|
it looks alright, see how it goes. it seems to be a good deal, if it sounds good and you like it you know you made the right decision.
|
Did you notice they are charging you more for shipping then the price of the x pipe.
|
no kidding. just get the whole pipe, no cutting. http://cgi.ebay.ca/Exhaust-X-Pipe-Do...item519406587f
|
I haVE AN AMERICAN HOOK-UP.....$23 SHIP + the full pipe is off-road and I don't have a programmer

Some state that the X-pipe adds some raspyness. Regardless, you won't gain any noticeable performance. Even if it's 2-3 RWHP (and I may be optimistic), you can't distinguish the gain from the variance from pull to pull on a dyno.

the x-pipe would be strictly for sound - to get the actual sound of the Bullitt. I wish I could have bought a louder muffler combo, (there's a mid-muffler on CL for 4 $250 :icon_sad:) but I leave early in the morning and don't wanna piss anyone off - I figured this would be my best route with the GTB's and I have a "cash guy" to do sum exhaust work so cutting out the H and replace with an X shouldn't be too costly

That looks a lot like the FRPP x pipe. All I can say is good luck with the install, I never got mine on correctly so I bought another brand for a hassle free install.

Let us know how the track times go, very interested in how your set up does on some DRs.

I am going to the track on Aug 21, so I should have new times soon. But we expect it to be hot and humid as hell so I don't know how the times will look. But I expect to get a good time in October when it's a bit cooler.

well.....the GTB's are on and all I can say is quiet - or at least "more refined" (@ least from the cockpit)(all stock incl. the H-pipe). The stock GT's had a bit of a pop and a more hollower sound, these are deeper and smoother, and don't pop @ all.....maybe due to the resonated tips? So, if you want an axle-back that's a "little bit louder" these aren't the choice imo. So, a catted X-pipe or the splice in one is going on the Xmas list - nice sound, but a lil disappointed in the lack of increase in volume - actually, kinda bummed. my .02
