Default Straight through + H pipe?

Ok i know the general rule that people say.... X pipe goes with straight through muffler and H pipe goes with chambered.... Well my question is if i buy and o/r H pipe and pick a straight through cat back is it going to sound bad? Or would the straight through in fact sound better with an X?

And what about a prochamber..... i know alot of people recomend it but is it alot quieter than the H and X? And how would the prochamber sound paired with maybe packs or flows?

Sorry... i know its alot of questions.

I just switched from an O/R bassani X to a O/R prochamber and it is a LOT quieter.

Default RE: Straight through + H pipe?

it's not really a rule that h goes with chambered and an x goes with straight through, its just a general consensus on what compliments each other better. With a straight through setup, almost all cars would feel a bit sluggish and lose a bit of torque due to lost back pressure and pretty much no exhaust scavenging heh.. I heard a stang with bbk o/r h and flow super 40's it sounded great but the guys drone hurt my ears and i was in my car behind him. why are you changing your setup?
