Default X-pipe

Okay here's the thing. I've currently got flowmaster cat back with a custom o/rx-pipe. I love the exhaust but i been really wanting SLP. Well a buddy of mine bought a wrecked mustang with no exhaust. he fixed it and is now wanting to buy my whole setup. I told him i'd sell it to him but i'd need to find one for mine first. I decided to go with SLP Loudmouth I catback but i dont know what kind of x-pipe to get. I know i need it to be catted. Anyone know of a good catted X that isn't gonna cost an arm and a leg?I'd really like to get an SLP x-pipe but goodness that's expensive.Pypes or MAC good brands? They're pretty cheap but idk if they're good or not. I just want something that's gonna sound good with the SLP's and not set me back TOO much. Thanks guys

Pypes is what CobraStangGT16 has and it sounds good w/ his flowmasters but honestly you get what you pay for since its only $300shipped and the "hi-flow" cats that come on them seem to get damaged quick since its light weight and replacing them for $50bucks a cat everytime you hit a dip or scrape hard on a speedbump isn't worth it since the area i live in i scrape my cats n stuff sometimes ...

you could get a upr catted xpipe, same design as the slp. i wanted the slp x so it could match my catback(2's), also i wanted stainless as my doesnt get put away for winter. the slp catted x really isnt that bad of a retail price i thought when i was shopping. i bought mine barely used for cheap. only thing about the slp catted x is it hangs kind of low, otherwise ive had zero problems.


i would go slp.

catless is way louder, has a more raw/choppy/raspy sound. cats quiet and smooth the sound out.


go offroad, il never put my cats back on.
