side exhaust? huge wing, ill-fitting body kit, ugly color, type R badges, 10 - 15" subs.
i would love to have a termy, exhaust, intake, pulley and tune, you will be at 500hp.

Actually, either H or X O/R is raspy, catted X-pipes are not raspy...I don't know where this info keeps coming from.
H pipes keep their deep tone through the RPM range. X pipes go from a deep tone at idle to a higher pitched roar at WOT. Sound is really the main difference in the two styles. All of the other differences are negligible from the evidence collected. 1 HP here 2-3 TQ there...can't go wrong with either as long as you're getting rid of the stock part.

as far as full exhaust, pulley, tune and intake would probably get you there. any factory forced induction car responds pretty well to mods.
X is raspy and loud, H is deep. X gives more horsepower, H gives more torque... but by very small numbers.

do some cooling mods if you plan on doing the pulley swap, ie get an aftermarket heat exchanger, You alreay have an intercooler on the terms so you dont need to get one of those. The first thing i would would do is get a 2.81 pulley and a tune. Then get some exhaust and an intake, Lower it with some good springs. get an after market shifter, some wide tires, do some irs things to make it stronger like an IRS brace. If you want to go big power get a KB or whipple supercharger.
